🍳 烹飪流程

Whisk together all sauce ingredients and set aside. Hand-chop chicken thighs and prepare aromatics and basil. → Stir-fry the chopped chicken in a smoking hot pan until cooked through. → Add shallots, garlic, and chilies, and cook for two more minutes until fragrant. → Add the sauce in two stages, allowing it to caramelize and reduce to a glaze. → Turn off the heat, stir in a large amount of fresh basil until just wilted, and serve immediately with rice and an optional fried egg.

重要提醒

⚠️

Hand-chopping the chicken thighs gives a much better texture than pre-ground chicken. Briefly freezing the chicken for 10-15 minutes makes it easier to chop.

⚠️

Using the highest possible heat is essential for this dish to develop the proper flavor and caramelization.

⚠️

While authentic Thai Holy Basil is ideal, regular sweet basil is a perfectly acceptable and delicious substitute.

⚠️

The amount of basil may seem like a lot, but it wilts down significantly. Don't be shy with it!

⚠️

Serving with a fried egg on top is the traditional way to enjoy this dish in Thailand and is highly recommended.
