1 small handful cilantro stems, and chopped fresh leaves for garnish
4 medium chicken thighs (about 1½ pounds)
2 cans (13.5 ounces) light coconut milk
2 cup chicken broth
1 stalk lemon grass, halved lengthwise, then crosswise
1½ inch piece of ginger, sliced into coins
¼ cup lime juice
¼ cup fish sauce
Instructions
Except for the green chili and chopped cilantro leaves, bring all ingredients to simmer in a 5- to 6 quart Dutch oven. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, to blend flavors, 10 to 15 minutes.
Drain broth discarding lemon grass, cilantro stems, and ginger; shred chicken thighs into bite-size pieces. Return broth to a simmer, add the shredded chicken and heat through. Serve, garnishing with sliced chilis and chopped cilantro.
