Thai Green Chicken Noodles
A spicy, satisfying and simple supper. High in protein, only 550 calories and contains 3 portions of veg - nutritious and delicious!
Ingredients
80g babycorn
80g mushrooms
80g green beans
35g Thai green curry paste
1/2 tin light coconut milk
1/2 tablespoon of tamari (gluten free soy sauce)
1 nest of wholegrain rice noodles
75g cooked chicken breast
(Serves 1)
This is one of my regular go to recipes as it is so quick and filling. Perfect, for a Monday night to use up meat from the Sunday roast!
Method
Chop the veg and steam in a frying pan with a few spoonfuls of water for about 3-4 minutes til they start to soften.
Mix in the Thai curry paste, coconut milk, tamari and bring your broth to the boil.
Add the cooked chicken, noodles and simmer until the noodles are soft (around 4 minutes). You will need to add some water too at this stage to help the noodles cook - how much depends on whether you want a thick sauce or thinner broth. Add a bit at a time until it’s how you like it.
Serve and enjoy!
This recipe is really versatile so you can sub the vegetables for what you’ve got in the fridge or swap the chicken for prawns, tofu or salmon. This recipe also is great with red Thai or massaman paste!
