  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup laksa paste
  • 2 cans coconut flavoured evaporated milk
  • 300g skinless chicken breast fillet (cubed)
  • 1 cup green beans (trimmed and chopped)

  • 2 tablespoons coriander leaves
  • lime wedges (to serve).

Method

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick saucepan over medium to high flame and add laksa paste.
  2. Cook stirring for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant. Add evaporated milk and bring to the boil.
  3. Add chicken, beans and corn, reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Add capsicum and simmer for a further 3-5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
  4. Cook noodles as per packet instructions and place into serving bowls.

  • Evaporated milk is significantly lower in fat than coconut cream or coconut milk.
  • For extra coconut flavour, you can also add coconut essence.
