Method

  1. Mix the chicken in a bowl with 1/ 2 the lime juice, and the sweet chilli sauce. Season. Put on a baking sheet, flattened out as much as possible, and grill on each side for about 4 minutes or until cooked through. Make sure you finish on the skin side so it crisps up.
  2. Drain the noodles and stir through the rest of the lime juice, the herbs and cucumber. Season well. Serve the noodles with the chicken on top and a little bowl of chilli sauce on the side.

    This was really good. Cooked it for 4 over the weekend. When I served, I thought it wasn't going to be enough, but it was a perfect amount. Really light, felt healthy (I can't work out whether it actually is or not!), and was perfect for a light dinner with a dessert.

    Loved this, really fresh flavours. Next time I make it (which will be soon!) I will add more sweet chilli but that's just my taste. Really lovely light meal.

    I'm surprised that this recipe hasn't had more hits. It was simple, delicious and very fresh. I used with a pack of ready done rice noodles from the chilled section. Tasted very Vietnamese - don't need to go out for this now I know I can do it at home! :-)

    It was Alright. The flaour was nice and fresh with a hint of spice, but as it turns out I'm not so keen on rice noodles. Wont be cooking this again.
