This Tom Yum soup is a quick, herbaceous broth brightened by lime and chili, with a savory depth from fish sauce. It's built on a chicken stock base, infused with classic Thai aromatics like lemongrass, galangal, and makrut lime leaves. Once the broth is fragrant, prawns cook quickly in the hot liquid. A final adjustment of lime and fish sauce ensures a balanced, complex flavor.
