900-mL carton chicken broth
400-mL can regular coconut milk
1/2 tsp granulated sugar
1 tsp hot chili-garlic sauce
2 to 3 leaves makrut-lime leaf
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into thin bite-sized strips
227-g pkg sliced mushrooms, or 90-g pkg enoki mushrooms
1 ripe tomato, chopped
1/2 454-g pkg medium shrimp, peeled

Instructions
Pour broth and coconut milk into a large saucepan and set over medium. Whisk in sugar and chili-garlic sauce. Add lime leaves. Cover and bring to a boil.
Add chicken, mushrooms, tomato and shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, about 5 min. (If using enoki mushrooms, stir in with cilantro at the end of cooking.)
