Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 shallot, chopped
- 1/2 cup red peppers, sliced
- 1 Thai chili or serrano pepper, chopped
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/4 cup oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 cup Thai basil
Instructions
- Add the oil to the wok and heat over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 3-5 minutes until almost cooked through.
- Add the minced garlic, shallots, and peppers. Stir fry until fork tender but still crisp.
- To make the sauce, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, and brown sugar in a bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Add the sauce and stir fry until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
- Turn off the heat and toss in the basil, reserving a few leaves for garnish. The heat will soften and wilt the basil leaves.
