Step 1
Heat a large pot over medium heat. Roughly chop chicken into 1-2” chunks, then cook along with a large pinch of salt until browned.
Step 2
Halve and slice the onion into thin half-moons. Slice the ginger into thin coins (no need to peel), smash and peel 3 garlic cloves, and rinse or brush any dirt off the mushrooms (halving any extra-large ones). Add everything to the pan with the chicken, and cook, stirring frequently, for about 3-5 minutes until fragrant.
Step 3
Pour in the broth and the entire can of coconut milk, and squeeze in the juice from 1 lime. Bring soup to a simmer and let cook about 5 minutes, then taste. Adjust the flavor to your liking (we often add a pinch of sugar and a bit more salt). Cut the other lime into wedges. Serve soup with basil and cilantro on the side, and a dash of your favorite hot sauce or a pinch of red chile flakes.
