Tom Kha Gai is a traditional Thai coconut chicken soup renowned for its creamy texture and aromatic flavors. Made with coconut milk, chicken, galangal (a fragrant root similar to ginger), lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, Thai chili, mushrooms, and lime juice, this dish balances savory, tangy, and slightly spicy notes. It is often garnished with fresh cilantro and served warm. Nutritionally, Tom Kha Gai provides protein from the chicken and essential vitamins and minerals from the herbs and vegetables. Coconut milk contributes healthy fats, though it is calorie-dense, so moderation is key. The soup is gluten-free and offers anti-inflammatory properties due to ingredients like galangal and lemongrass. However, its sodium content may be high depending on preparation, especially if using fish sauce or bouillon. Tom Kha Gai is a comforting option with bold flavors, perfect for cooler weather or as a nourishing starter.
