\"chickenlaksa\"<\/a>A tart, spicy Southeast Asian chicken noodle soup<\/p>\n

Leave it to West Coast guide to the good life, Sunset Magazine, to throw together a chicken laksa soup recipe so good we’d eat it in Southern California all summer.<\/em><\/p>\n

The spicy Malaysian laksa soup may have a long list of ingredients, but it\u2019s super easy. Malaysian kitchens (in\u00a0Southeast Asia, in Southern California, and elsewhere) weave Chinese, Indian and Malay culinary strands\u00a0into a complex cuisine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
