This delicious recipe for Thai Curry Noodles with Chicken is a creamy, tangy, Asian style curry that makes a simple supper – perfect for feeding the family.
My latest foodie obsession is all things curry. Growing up, my family never cooked any type of curry dish so it’s not something I tried cooking before moving here to the UK.
But Curries in the UK is like Chinese food in America. It’s the go-to takeout choice. For me, it was love at first taste and I’ve never looked back since!
I adore curry! It’s unique flavor always leaves me craving more.
My husband and I absolutely love Thai food. We recently ate at our local Thai restaurant and they had a curry noodle dish on the lunch specials menu. I just knew I had to try it! It was delicious and one of my favorite things to do is trying to re-create dishes I’ve ordered and loved. An example is my Quick and Easy Thai Panang Curry.
This Thai Curry Noodles with Chicken recipe is definitely going to be a new favorite dish in our house! All of us loved it (even my little boy)! Despite its unique list of ingredients, it was really easy to make.
This dish is great for using up leftover chicken, but I do love the shortcut of using store-bought rotisserie chicken. Either way, you’ll end with a delicious noodle dish you’ll want to make again and again!
The heat in this Thai Curry Noodles with Chicken dish isn’t too hot (I remove the seeds from the peppers), but be aware that some curry pastes contain a lot of heat so take a look at the ingredients before you decide on including the chili pepper. Enjoy!

I followed this recipe almost exactly- added more garlic bc I like garlic and squeezed lime over individual bowls when serving. Thought it was delicious! Thinking it will thicken up even more overnight and be even more delicious.

Hi Lindsay, love your additions! So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂

Did you cook the chicken and noodles separately or did you add them uncooked to the liquid to cook?
Erren's Kitchen says
Hi, you add the cooked chicken and uncooked noodles to the liquid near the end of cooking as specified in the recipe(stage 4), the noodles are then cooked off in the broth. I hope this helps 🙂
