Warm Thai Chicken Noodle Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high. Put the chicken on a baking tray and grill for 10-12 minutes without turning, until cooked through.
• Meanwhile, cook the noodles according to instructions. Drain and run cold water through to stop them sticking together.
• Mix the vegetables in a bowl. Thinly slice the chicken and add to the bowl, along with the noodles and coriander leaves.
• Mix the dressing ingredients together with 2 tablespoons water, pour over the salad and toss well. Serve straight away.

Steps:

• Place chicken and half of dressing in a resealable plastic bag (reserve remaining dressing). Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes (or refrigerate up to overnight).
• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook noodles until tender. Drain, and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Transfer to a platter.
• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Working in batches, cook chicken (do not crowd skillet) until cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes; transfer to platter on top of noodles.
• Top with carrots, cucumber, and basil. Drizzle with reserved dressing, and sprinkle with garnishes, if desired.

Steps:

• Whisk garlic, rice vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, Sriracha, hoisin, and sesame oil together in a mixing bowl for the dressing.
• Tear chicken apart into strands similar in width to the spaghetti. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
• Transfer spaghetti to a mixing bowl; add the chicken, carrots, bell pepper, and green onions. Pour in the dressing and toss by hand until well combined. Seal the surface of the salad with plastic wrap and refrigerate, tossing occasionally, for 2 to 12 hours, the longer the better.
• Add peanuts, basil, mint, and cilantro to the salad. Toss well; taste and adjust for seasoning.

Steps:

• Soak the noodles: Boil the kettle and tip the rice noodles into a heatproof bowl. Pour over boiling water to cover. Leave noodles to soak for 4 minutes.
• Whisk and toss: Meanwhile, make the dressing. Whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest and juice and mayonnaise, then season if you want to. Drain the noodles and return to the bowl. Throw in the sugar snaps, red pepper and basil. Pour in half the dressing and gently toss.
• To serve: Divide the noodles between two bowls. Slice the chicken breasts and arrange on top of the noodles. Drizzle over the remaining dressing and serve.

Steps:

• Put the chicken in a large heavy pan or flameproof casserole, then add the ginger, spring onions and garlic, plus a good sprinkling of salt. Cover with water, bring to the boil, reduce the heat, then cover tightly. Simmer the chicken for 1-1¼ hrs until tender. Leave to cool for 15 mins, then remove the chicken from the pan and strip off the meat. (The stock can be cooled and frozen for soups, sauces and casseroles.) Tear the chicken into bite-size chunks, then leave to cool.
• Put the noodles in a large heatproof bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave for 4 mins, drain, rinse in cold water, then return to the bowl. Use a scissors to snip into short lengths, then toss with the oil to stop them sticking together.
• Cook the asparagus for 3-4 mins in boiling salted water, then tip into a sieve and cool under cold running water. Drain well. If using green beans, cook them with the asparagus. If using sugar snaps, they won't need to be cooked.
• To make the dressing, mix the lime juice with the sugar until it has dissolved. Add the fish sauce and chillies, then mix well. To serve, put all the salad ingredients in a large bowl with most of the basil and mint leaves. Pour over the dressing and toss everything together well. Pile into a large serving bowl, then scatter over the peanuts and the remaining basil and mint.

Steps:

• Heat oil in skillet or wok over med-high heat.
• Cook garlic and chile in oil around 30 secs, stirring frequently.
• Stir in chicken.
• Cook stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink in center.
• Add bell pepper, cucumber and onions; toss with chicken mixture.
• Stir in remaining ingredients except salad greens.
• Heat to boiling, stirring constantly; boil and stir 30 secs.
• Remove from heat.
• Divide lettuce among 4 dinner plates.
• Spoon chicken mixture over lettuce, using slotted spoon.
• Drizzle liquid from skillet over chicken and lettuce.
• Garnish with dry-roasted peanuts and lime slices if desired.

Steps:

• Place noodles in a large heat-proof bowl. Bring 5 cups of water to a boil and pour water over the noodles. Make sure noodles are fully submerged. Let stand, stirring occasionally, until noodles become tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain well and place noodles back in the bowl.
• While noodles are standing, stir together rice vinegar, soy sauce, fish sauce (if using), sesame oil, honey or sugar, hot sauce, garlic and ginger in a small bowl. After noodles have been drained, add this dressing to noodles and toss to coat.
• Add chicken, carrots, red pepper, cucumber, bean sprouts and green onions to noodles, tossing to combine.
• Divide noodles among serving plates and garnish with cilantro or basil and sesame seeds. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
