Steps to make Butternut squash and curry soup with chicken:
- Pre heat oven to 400° then roast the butternut squash. I usually cut it in half, poke holes in it then microwave each half for 4 minutes. I then remove the skin, dice it into chunks, and cover them in olive oil and a little salt and pepper. Then put it in the oven and cook for about 30 minutes or until the squash is soft
- Dice the onion and put it in an oiled pan with the clove of garlic. Sauté on medium heat until onion is caramelized.
- When the squash and onions are done, throw them into a stock pot and set them aside so you can prep your chicken.
- Cover the chicken breasts in olive oil and add salt and pepper. Then cover them in the dry spices and roast them in a 350° oven for about 20 minutes or until there is no pink in the middle. When the chicken is done, shred it and set it to the side.
- While the chicken is cooking, add the vegetable stock to the pot with your squash and onion and heat on medium low. You can also add your brown sugar and your curry paste. After the curry has been incorporated, you can use a hand blender to blend the chunks of squash and onions until the soup is smoothe.
- Add your can of coconut milk (be sure to shake it before opening the can)
- Ladle some of the warm soup into your bowl and add the chicken and some extra coconut milk if choose!
