Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Boil a half-full kettle
  • Pull out a large frying pan, a large saucepan, a sieve & a measuring jug

Start the prep

  • Roughly dice the onions. Trim and cut the pak choi into bite-sized pieces. Thinly slice the mushrooms
  • Dissolve the creamed coconut in the jug with 400ml boiling water

Build the dish

  • Heat the large frying pan with 2 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chick'n and cook for 4 mins, then add the onion and mushrooms
  • Cook for another 4-5 mins, until soft and golden. Season with salt and pepper
  • Add the sugar snap peas, ginger & garlic paste and Thai curry paste. Cook for 1-2 mins, until fragrant

Time to noodle

  • Meanwhile, bring the large saucepan filled with salted hot water to a boil
  • Once boiling, add the noodles, gently separate with a fork and boil for 6-7 mins, until cooked. Drain, then rinse under cold water

Get your simmer on

  • Add the coconut mixture, tamari and maple syrup to the chick'n pan. Stir to combine and simmer for 4-5 mins
  • Add the pak choi in the final 2 mins, until all the veg has softened and the sauce has thickened
  • Stir the cooked noodles into the pan and toss to coat in the sauce. Add a splash of water if it gets too dry

Last bits & plate up

  • Roughly chop the coriander and stir half into the curry. Deseed and finely slice the chilli
  • Serve the Thai green chick'n curry into bowls. Sprinkle over the remaining coriander and the chilli (for those who'd like the heat)
