Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This was absolutely delicious. My chicken breast was close to a pound and I used 3 Thai bird chiles from the garden. Instead of the Thai long chile, I used a poblano chile. This will be in regular rotation in our house in the summer as I usually have the chiles, tomato and Thai basil in the garden and I'll add shrimp to the mix.

    This was good and easy but I have had better drunken noodles.

    We loved this recipe, and it was easy so I'm definitely going to make it again. I made it with half chicken and half seitan. The chicken is not contributing that much, so it's easy to swap it out for whatever protein you'd like. In the future, I will add bamboo shoots to improve the veggie to noodle ratio. UPDATE: when I made this today my partner said “I would happily pay for this in a restaurant” which I think is my favorite compliment.

    I made this with beef instead of chicken and with a poblano chile instead of a Thai long green chile. I also omitted the tomato. The sauce just wasn't quite right. It was a lot darker than what I'm used to.

    The sauce! This. Is. The. Sauce. You know how you go to a noodle place, and ...you don’t think you can reproduce the sauce at home? Well, this was the Sauce of Freedom for me.
