Chicken in Lemongrass Coconut Broth Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Chicken in Lemongrass Coconut Broth Recipe). I made this soup after trying it at a Thai noodle house in my area. I just kept playing around with ingredients until I got something similar. I have the seasonings adjusted to my liking, however there is an adjustment guide in the footnotes if you would like a slightly different flavor. This soup is also good with rice or pasta, but ramen seems to be the favorite. You can use any flavor of ramen noodles.
