- 1 teaspoon poultry or all-purpose seasoning
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 13.5 ounce can coconut milk
- 1 1/4 pounds boneless skinless thighs or breasts (if using boneless skinless breasts, I suggest cutting each breast into 3 or 4 equal-sized pieces so that they cook more quickly and at an even rate)

- To reheat: This soup can easily be reheated in the microwave or over low heat on the stove top. To store in the refrigerator: Let the soup cool completely, then place in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 5-6 days. To freeze: Allow the soup to cool fully before transferring it to an airtight container. Freeze for up to 4 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
