mango noodle salad

If I am going to have a salad it has to be packed with flavour,allthe flavour! This is a delicious cold noodle salad, mixed with crisped shredded chicken, dressed in a sweet, spicy, sour, fruity mango dressing and topped with a whole lot of freshness and colour from crunchy peppers and spring onions.

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Start by putting the noodles in a bowl and adding boiling water to it till the noodles are submerged. Leave according to the instructions on the packet. Drain into a colander and run under cold water until totally cold, then put in a large bowl.

Step 2

Now pop a non-stick frying pan onto the hob and pour in the oil. Heat the oil on high, add the shredded chicken in an even layer and fry. As soon as it is crisp on the base, turn around in bits and crisp up the other side. Transfer onto a plate and lightly season.

Step 3

To the same pan add the garlic and cook till very golden brown. As soon as it is, use a slotted spoon and add the garlic to a food processer. Now add the mango, coriander, chillies, salt, lemon zest and juice to the food processor and blend to a smooth sauce. Add the sauce to the noodles.

Step 4

Before serving, add the spring onion, coriander, both the red and yellow peppers and toss through. Stir in the chicken and it’s ready to serve and enjoy.
