The Best Thai Food You'll Ever Make

Seriously, this is incredible. Ask anyone who's ever had it. It's simple and fresh and so so so yummy.

Thai Basil Chicken

1 medium green bell pepper

1/2 onion, sliced

1/2 red bell pepper, sliced
16 ounces boneless skinless chicken breast halves, sliced 1/4-inch thick or one pork tenderloin, sliced
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1/3 cup shredded basil
peanut oil, for stir-fying

Sauce 1
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Sauce 2
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
4 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon chili paste

Sauce 3
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water

(I usually make an extra batch of Sauce 3, just in case the sauce is a bit thin)


Heat oil in wok. Stir-fry onions and peppers until crisp tender. Remove and keep warm.

Add a bit more oil to wok if needed and stir-fry chicken, garlic, and pepper flakes until chicken is done. Add sauces in order, stirring between each addition to coat. Add cooked vegetables back and stir to
coat.

Add basil, stirring just until hot and beginning to wilt. Serve over rice.
