Chicken Pad Thai Recipe From Bored of Lunch: The Healthy Slow Cooker Book Even Easier

I absolutely love a Pad Thai and this version makes it so easy to replicate outside of a wok. I have tried many, many times to cook the noodles in the slow cooker by adding some extra chicken stock to make this a true one-pot dish, but the best result is achieved when you add the cooked noodles at the end.

  3. Cook the noodles separately, then stir through the chicken and garnish with the chilli, peanuts, lime wedges and coriander.
