Thai Chicken and Shrimp Noodles

This Thai-inspired noodle dish takes only moments to throw together and brings the spicy, zesty flavors of Thai cuisine to your own kitchen.



I adore the vibrant colours of this dish. Like all Thai cooking, the fragrance is absolutely delightful. The combination of zesty lime, salty fish sauce, and spicy chili makes in this dish transports you right to Thailand.


This is a perfect midweek meal as it is unbelievably quick and easy. It's also simple to dial up or down the spice to suit your family.


Looking for lunch the next day? Well great! Because these noodles reheat very well and taste just as delicious the next day.
