30-minute soup recipe with warm curry spices, chicken breast, and a hint of red pepper.

Ingredients
2/3 cup diced onion
1 Tablespoon toasted sesame oil

1 cup diced and cooked chicken breast
1 ½ teaspoons curry powder
½ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth (see Notes)
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
2 cans (14 1/2 ounces) stewed tomatoes
6 Tablespoons peanut butter
Directions
- Wash hands with soap and water.

This was such a wonderful combination of flavors. I will definitely make it again.
I made this for a local food bank audience to sample. It was a simple recipe to scale up and most folks really enjoyed the flavors. A few people commented that it was too spicy so I might suggest leaving out some of the red pepper flakes if preparing for a mixed audience. When I make this at home I include frozen green peas and top with a handful of toasted cashews and some golden raisins. It's a favorite!
Very good. Tomatoes and chicken add extra flavor. Next time I am going to add some extra chopped peanuts for even more flavor.
