Laksa is a rich fragrant soup, and is one of my favourite soups. This one is packed with chicken, noodles and beansprouts so it has plenty enough in it to make a hearty dinner too. This one is my quick version, using a store-bought laksa paste (more info below on my recommendation for this) and rotisserie chicken.I also have a slightly more involved fish laksa on my site – where I make my own paste. That one still only takes 30 minutes, even with making your own paste.
The Laksa Paste
I use the Teans Gormet Laksa Paste (affiliate link) for this quick chicken laksa. Out of all the laksa pastes I’ve tried, this one is my favourite – providing a much richer and more authentic flavour than supermarket versions. You could, of course, make your own paste by following my Seafood Laksa recipe. The smells in the kitchen when this is cooking as amazing! It’s so lip-smackingly tasty that whilst writing this up I’ve literally just ordered some more of the laksa paste. It is soo tasty, I can’t wait to have it again 😋. For this Quick Chicken Laksa, I like to top it with:
Fresh Coriander (fresh cilantro) Chilli Crisp in chilli oil Crispy onions Fresh lime slices/wedges
