Cup-o-Laksa Creamy Chicken

Cook this often. So easy qnd delicious.. for something different this time I added a can of diced tomatoes, chopped onion, spinach, capsium and spring onion.. enjoyed all around. Very delicious. Served with rice and mixed veg.

Had high hopes for this but the whole family were disappointed with it’s blandness. Made cauliflower rice to go with it but that didn’t lift it. Got a 4.5/10 so I won’t be asked to make it again. You never know til you give it a go though!

So after finding the recipe a little non-wow for my tastes on the flavour side, I went back to it again. My shop no longer has the red curry soup mix I’d been using in subsequent attempts, so went back to Asian Laksa. I quartered skinless chicken thighs and seasoned them in garlic powder, season all salt and cracked black pepper. I pan fried 1 onion, 6 diced slices short cut bacon, 5 chopped chillis (seeds IN!!) in a heaped teaspoon of minced garlic. Combined all and more black pepper. 3.75 hours low and then added rinsed noodles for last 15 minutes.

Oh my god the flavour was intense!!!

We had never had Laksa of any kind before and we really enjoyed this. Used 500g diced chicken breast as its the only type I’ll eat and it cooked on low easily for 3hrs. Served with rice and lettuce. Another chicken dinner winner.

This was great, nice and tasty 😁 used maryland pieces, just a bit more meat.

Yummmmmmo
Made this for the third time. Doesn’t disappoint!! Used two very large breast fillets on high for 2.5hrs. Doubled the recipe as the family loves the sauce.
Plates nearly licked clean. Everyone went back for seconds. Just enough for one serve for school lunch tomorrow. I think there’s going to be a race in the morning.
Other times I have made it I’ve fried off some bacon and onion and added it at the beginning. I always shred the meat to make sure the sauce goes everywhere.
Such an easy recipe. Great for times when I’m time poor. I keep an eye out for when the soups are on special and purchase a few extra packets.
Thank you for thinking of this recipe.

Yummo! Loved the flavour, I used chicken breast instead of drumsticks. I found the consistinacy a little thick, so may use pouring cream instead of cooking cream next time. Will be making it again, That’s for sure!

This was a hit with my family will be cooking it again

Simple and delicious, exactly what slow cooking should be! Absolutely loved it!

First time making this. Really easy and quite tasty however I felt it needed a bit more oompfff and flavour so I added 2 tablespoons of laksa paste, sliced onion, garlic and kale. I will definitely make this again

Cooked this for my neighbours last night everyone had seconds …..delicious once again thank you for the recipe 😃

Omg I had that last night and the family absolutely loved it. I did add a little more chilli and used Thigh fillets instead of legs. I also added a small can of coconut milk as well. It almost became shredded Chicken 😁
Served it on a bed of rice and veg on the side 👍

This was delicious! I used 1kg thigh fillets, 600mls of cooking cream and 3 satchels. Shredded and added cooked penne pasta, served with garlic bread. Was so easy to prepare. My fussy family gave it 10/10!!! Winner!! Thank you Pauline 😁

I love this recipe! Not too spicy which is perfect for me. Lovely and creamy with lots of sauce. I’ll be making this again!

I love this! Not spicy (which is perfect for me). Delicious flavour and very creamy. Makes lots of sauce. Will be making this again!

I made it with chicken breast (cut up and seared first) and used a big tin of coconut cream and about half a can of water, added some sweet potato and potato, and kaffir lime leaf. We ate it over rice, and it was so delish!
Was going to freeze left overs, but they got eaten too quickly.

Made this tonight, used coconut cream as it was all I had. Added in some frozen corn mix about 45 mins before I served.
Super easy to make and all the kids ate it without a problem. Will definitely make it again.

Made this a few times now and it’s a winner! Even fussy eaters loved it. I used coconut cream instead of cooking cream the second time I made it and it tastes no different 🙂 added carrots too and tasted fab. Definitely on my favs list.

Delicious!!! I added garlic to mine.
The whole family enjoyed this.

I have made this a few times and it is absolutely DELICIOUS!!!!

This is an easy, budget and family friendly mild laksa😊
I used chicken thighs and coconut cream and it was yummy👍
If you would prefer a spicier more authentic tasting laksa, I would suggest adding some Laksa paste.
It turned out lovely and thick, so I think it would work beautifully as a pie filling too😊
Thanks for the recipe👍

Made this tonight and it was great
I used 750g chicken breast diced up small.
I seared it off in the frypan first
I mixed the two packets of laksa with the 300ml of cooking cream. I put the chicken in the slow cooker.
I then added the cooking cream mixture to the slow cooker and mixed it all together I put on low. Part way through cooking I added some more cooking cream. Probably 450ml cooking cream altogether. After 2 hours and 45 minutes the chicken was cooked so I put it to warm for another hour and 40 minutes until I was ready to serve the rest of the dinner. I served it up with cauliflower and cheese sauce, carrots and peas. Was a great success. Very happy with how it turned out. Next time I’ll add the 600ml cream and serve it with mash or rice

Made this tonight it was nice and creamy but I found it a bit bland. By adding Laska paste would it give it more flavour? 😊

Love this!! I did mine with chicken thigh fillets…. even my fussy boys enjoyed it and said they would eat it again….. Mummy Win 😁😁😁

Soo yummy! Fed 5 adults and the bowl was empty straight away. Wish there was more for seconds

An interesting outcome. One in the house absolutely loved this, whilst I was a little non-plussed – nice enough but far from wow for me. I have never been into creamy based dishes (eg never have pasta carbonara!) so I think my personal likes and dislikes definitely influenced my thoughts on this recipe outcome. On the definite plus side – this was very simple to make (using thighs instead of drums) and the recipe, like any recipe, lends itself to experimenting…..

Tried this tonight & added some mixed frozen vegetables, thought it could do with some more spice rather bland, but very easy to do.

It’s yummy 😋 I just used coconut cream instead of the cream
Will make it for sure heaps

I made this tonight and it was really yum and was quite cheap to feed my family, I’m going to add muchrooms next time 🙂

This recipe is so easy yet so awesome. I did add chilli paste, garlic, onion, turmeric and instead of cream I used coconut cream. Served with rice noodles. Delicious

Omg I made this last night and all i have to say is YUMMY everyone loved it.. Added extra cream as we like to have sauce to cover the chicken and rice…. Wow!!

Made this tonight….Would like a bit more flavour of Laska…..might add some Laksa paste next time other wise was VERY yummy. The family enjoyed it.

I’m cooking this tomorrow night. I brought 2 tubs of cream cause the more sauce the better plus I am going to add bacon pieces

Very nice will be making this again

I made this tonight and it was really really REALLY yummy. Husband loved it. Flavours were really nice. I added a little more cream only because we like a lot of sauce, but it didn’t change the taste. Fantastic recipe! Thank you 🙂

Sounds yummy. I hit the first red heart save !!! I always have those ingredients on hand so this can be an easy go to for me. !!!
