This Soup is a Huge hit in my house! I found in through StupidEasyPaleo.com. I have made a few changes, but for the most part, it’s close to the original.
-FOR THE SOUP-
What You Will Need:
- 14 ounces (420 ml) can full-fat coconut milk
- 3 cups (475 ml) chicken stock
- 1.5 pounds (454 grams) shrimp
- 2 inch piece of ginger, peeled and chopped fine
- 2 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2-3 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tsp sriracha (omit for Whole30)
- Chopped cilantro for garnish
- Green Onions sliced thin (optional)
- Salt/Pepper/Garlic powder
How it’s Done:
- Prepare the shrimp by peeling and deveining if not already done prior to purchase. (I like to get my shrimp started a little in the oven, I place them on a cookie sheet, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook at 350 for about 5-8 minutes or until shrimp begin to turn white) Set aside for now.
- In a pot over medium heat, combine the coconut milk, chicken stock and ginger.
- Bring the liquid to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer.
- Add the shrimp, mushrooms, lime juice, and sriracha. Simmer until the shrimp (less than 5 min) is cooked through.
- Top with fresh chopped cilantro & onions for garnish.
-For the Fried Rice-
What You Will Need:
- 4 cups cooked Basmati or Jasmine rice, preferably at least 1 day old
- 4 Tbsp Walnut oil for stir-frying
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced
- 5-6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 red or green chili (adjust seeds for heat preferences)

- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup fresh pineapple tidbits (optional)
- 3 Tbsp. chicken stock
- 3 Tbsp. Tamari
- 2 tsp. curry powder
- tsp. coconut sugar
- 3 spring onions, finely sliced
How it’s Done:
- Rice prep, use a fork to break apart grains. You don’t want it stuck together.
- Add oil to a large frying pan use medium-heat, then add the shallots, garlic, and chili, frying for one minute, or until fragrant.
- Add the beaten egg, scramble together with shallots, garlic, and chili.
- In a small bowl, mix together the chicken stock, tamari, curry powder, and sugar. Stir well, then add to pan.
- Add the cashews, fry for 30 seconds
- Add the prepared rice, mix well and break up the rice as much as possible.
