Ingredients

Serves 2

  • Handful of salad
  • ½ carrot
  • Fresh mint
  • Half a cucumber
  • 150g Rice Noodles
  • 1/2 onion, sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, sliced
  • 2-inch piece of fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 red chilli, sliced
  • 30g peanut butter
  • 30g natural yogurt
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 4 chicken thighs, chopped into chunks
  • ½ Lime
  • Optional: finely chopped salted peanuts, fresh coriander leaves, sliced spring onions

Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees.
  2. Start by making your chicken satay marinade. Combine -- peanut butter, yoghurt, soy sauce, juice of half a lime, ginger, chilli, garlic and onion into a bowl and mix well.
  3. Place chopped up chicken thigh into the bowl and cover with the marinade.
  4. Leave to marinade for at least 1 hour, but we recommend leaving it overnight to really bring out the flavour.
  5. When ready place chicken onto a skewer and place into the oven for 18 - 20 minutes turning occasionally.
  6. Heat rice noodles in a bowl in the microwave for 30 - 45 seconds and mix with salad, grated carrot and sliced up cucumber.
  7. Top with chicken and garnishes of your choice, a few chopped up peanuts, coriander, spring onions and fresh chilli work a treat!
