Instructions

Fry the Chicken
1

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the chicken to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and fry until browned on each side and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Get Prepped
2

While the chicken fries, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Trim the carrot, then halve lengthways (no need to peel). Slice widthways into pieces about ½cm thick.

Trim the courgette, then quarter lengthways. Chop widthways into 1cm pieces.

Crush the peanuts in the unopened sachet using a rolling pin.

Fry the Veg
3

Once your chicken has finished cooking, remove pan from the heat. Cover the chicken and set aside.

Put the pan back on medium-high heat (no need to clean) with another drizzle of oil (if needed).

Once hot, add the carrot to the frying pan and cook until starting to soften, 4-5 mins. 

Add the courgette and fry until the veg has softened, 5-6 mins. 

Add the Flavour
4

Add the North Indian style spice mix, ginger puree and garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 mins more.

Stir in the coconut milk, vegetable stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Bring up to a boil, then lower to a simmer. 

Add the chicken back into the pan and cook until the sauce has thickened slightly, 3-4 mins. 

Finishing Touches
5

Once your sauce has thickened, add the rice noodles to the pan. Gently toss to coat and simmer until piping hot, 1-2 mins.

Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper if needed. 

Add a splash of water if the sauce is looking a little thick.

Serve
6

Share your chicken noodles between your serving bowls.

Top with a sprinkling of peanuts.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the dish's taste, though some found the spice level higher than expected; others felt it lacked authentic North Indian flavour.
  • Ease of prep: Rice noodles were challenging to separate and incorporate; consider using thicker noodles or a different type for better results.
  • Suggestions: For a lower-calorie option, try using light coconut milk. Add extra heat if you prefer spicier curries.
  • Portions: The meal was filling, with some finding it generous enough for leftovers.
