Subs & Swaps
You can swap the chicken breast for chicken thigh for a juicier result, or use pre-cooked chicken to save time.

The peanut butter gives a light satay-style flavour you can leave it out if needed, but it does add depth to the broth.

If you prefer it milder, reduce the curry paste slightly or skip the chilli oil at the end.

You can swap the red pepper for mushrooms, pak choi or greens depending on what you’ve got.

Cook the noodles separately and add to the bowl at the end this keeps the broth cleaner and stops them going too soft.
Or use straight-to-wok noodles to skip boiling altogether and save an extra step. You can also prep the broth in advance and just reheat and assemble when needed.

To make it vegetarian - swap the chicken for extra gyoza or tofu, use vegetable stock and skip the fish sauce (or replace with soy).
