Instructions

1

a.) Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 0.5 tsp salt.

b.) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Cut the lime into wedges. 

2

a.) When boiling, add the noodles to the water and cook until tender, 4 mins.

b.) Once cooked, drain in a colander. TIP: Run the noodles under cold water to stop them sticking together.

 

3

a.) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b.) Once the oil is hot, add the chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper. Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins.

IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

 

4

a.) While the chicken cooks, in a jug or bowl, mix together the boiled water and sugar for the sauce (see pantry for amounts), soy sauce, peanut butter and ketjap manis.

TIP: The peanut butter will loosen more when it warms up in the hot pan.

5

a.) Once the chicken is cooked, add the yellow Thai style paste, mangetout and garlic to the pan and cook until fragrant, 1 min.

b.) Add the noodles and peanut sauce, stirring until well combined and noodles are nicely coated, 2-3 mins. TIP: Add a splash to loosen the sauce if you feel it needs it. 

c.) Add a generous squeeze of lime. Taste, then season with salt and pepper to your liking. 

6

a.) Share your peanut noodles between serving bowls. Serve with any remaining lime wedges. 

Enjoy!
