Ingredients:

4 chicken breasts
470g
2 cups rice noodles
460g
2 limes
140g
1/4 cup coriander leaves
3.75g
1/3 cup coconut milk
72g
1/2 cup salsa sauce
120g
2 tbsp lime juice
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Juice the 2 limes to get 2 tablespoons of lime juice if you haven't done so already.
- Chop the coriander leaves.
- Slice each chicken breast thinly for quicker cooking.
2. Cook the Noodles:
- In a large pot, bring water to a boil.
- Add the rice noodles and cook according to the package instructions (typically 5-7 minutes).
- Drain and set aside.
3. Cook the Chicken:
- Heat a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add a small amount of oil (optional) and add the sliced chicken breasts.
- Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
4. Prepare the Sauce:
- In the same pan, add the coconut milk, salsa sauce, and lime juice.
- Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce starts to thicken slightly.
5. Combine and Serve:
- Add the cooked noodles and chicken back into the pan with the sauce.
- Toss everything together until the noodles and chicken are well-coated in the sauce and everything is heated through.
- Remove from heat.
6. Garnish and Finish:
- Plate the noodle and chicken mixture.
- Garnish with the chopped coriander leaves.
- Serve the dish with lime wedges on the side or sesame seeds for an extra burst of flavor.

Tips:

- To ensure even cooking, pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness before cooking.

- Soak the rice noodles in warm water for about 20 minutes before cooking to make them softer and easier to work with.

- Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best flavor.

- Adjust the level of salsa sauce to suit your preferred level of spiciness.

- For an additional burst of flavor, garnish the dish with extra coriander leaves and lime wedges before serving.

- Marinating the chicken in coconut milk and lime juice for at least 30 minutes before cooking can enhance the flavor and tenderness.

Congratulations! You've successfully cooked a mouthwatering Thai-style chicken with noodles. Enjoy the blend of tangy lime, creamy coconut, and savory chicken with every bite. This dish is sure to become a favorite, bringing an exotic flair to your dining table.
