  • 1 red pepper thinly sliced

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • Juice of ½ lime
  • Fresh coriander or mint optional

Instructions

  • Cook the rice noodles according to the packet instructions. Once done, rinse under cold water to stop the cooking and prevent sticking.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan like this over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the chicken and cook for 6–8 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  • Add the sweet chilli sauce and soy sauce to the chicken. Stir well and cook for 1–2 more minutes until the chicken is glossy and coated.
  • In a large bowl like this, combine the cooked noodles, red pepper, carrot, cucumber, and spring onion. Squeeze over the lime juice and toss everything together. Use a citrus juicer like this for max flavour
  • Add the warm sweet chilli chicken and toss again to coat everything in the dressing. Top with fresh herbs and sesame seeds if using.
  • Serve warm or cold.
