Tangy Chili-Curried Chicken and Rice Noodles Recipe

September 1, 2010 by Robin Gagnon 5 Comments

Recipe: Tangy Chili-Curried Chicken and Rice Noodles Recipe

Summary: A quick Thai inspired light meal.

Cooking time (duration): 15

Diet (other): Low calorie, Reduced fat

I have been making a lot of quick light meals lately.  Rice noodles cook quickly, and are a great starch for Asian meals.  The Ponzu and lime, pack a tangy punch, so you won’t be missing out on flavor with this dish.  It is a  simple meal that makes for a good option when cooking for one, and is very reminiscent of the noodles served in Thai restaurants, only perhaps with a bit more punch.  .  It like many of my light recipes is portioned for one serving.  Simply multiply as needed.

3 oz. chicken thinly sliced

1/4 cup sliced onions

1/2 tbs. fresh lime juice ( about half a lime)

1 tsp. canola oil

1/2 tsp. chili powder

1/2 tsp. curry powder

3-4 basil leaves

1 tsp. Ponzu sauce (and more to use at serving time)

    This looks good! I’ve never cooked with curry – and have hardly had it. But, I did like it! I’ll have to try this one out!

    Someone posted this recipe on Twitter and I followed the link. It looks so GOOD! I can’t wait to try this 🙂
    I have favourited this on my Facebook. I have a cooking channel on You Tube and every now and then I like to cook and feature other blogger’s recipes with links back to your blog, of course. Would you mind if I featured this? I would like to make it for dinner and film it over the weekend.

    Thanks so much!
