Cooking Steps
- Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle.
- Remove centre veins from makrut lime leaves, then very thinly slice.
- Trim green beans and slice into thirds.
- Slice lime into wedges.
- Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks.
TIP: The makrut lime leaves are fibrous, so you want to cut them into small pieces!
- In a large baking dish, combine rendang paste, coconut milk, makrut lime leaves, the soy sauce and boiling water.
- Add chicken and egg noodles in an even layer. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 10 minutes.
TIP: If your baking dish is crowded, divide between two dishes.
- Remove dish from oven, then add green beans.
- Bake, covered, until noodles are tender and chicken is cooked through, a further 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from oven, add a generous squeeze of lime juice and stir through baby spinach leaves until just wilted.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
- Divide dump and bake chicken rendang noodles between bowls.
- Garnish with coriander. Serve with any remaining lime wedges. Enjoy!
Customer reviews
Review summary
Updated on Sept 2026- Flavour: When it works, reviewers describe it as deeply flavourful and comparable to Thai takeaway — a real crowd-pleaser.
- Ease of prep: Several reviewers found the tray-bake method produced mushy noodles and undercooked chicken, suggesting the timing needs close attention.
- Suggestions: Many reviewers found the chicken needed significantly longer to cook — up to 60 minutes total — and suggest adding the noodles later to avoid them becoming soggy. One reviewer recommended cooking the chicken and noodles separately on the cooktop for better texture and control.
- Portions: One reviewer felt there wasn't quite enough chicken for two people.
