There are a superior few truly bully meals in this class that postulate vindicatory 10 minutes to set from start to eat.
This Siamese Saint Yellow (Gai Pad Krapow) is one of them.
And it isn't one of those doc jobs either. This isn't an program of 30 Min Meals, where Wife Ray comes up with an hard 3-part list and screeches into the decorativeness credit at the end, unceremoniously dumping all of her dishes into bringing bowls and delivering her end-of-show sign-off with a judgment of ragged peer. This is going to be a mellow 10 minutes of preparation.
Ingredients
- 3 to 4 tablespoons oil
- 3 Thai bird or holland chilies, de-seeded (if desired) and thinly sliced
- 3 shallots, thinly sliced
- 5 cloves garlic, sliced
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 2 teaspoons sugar or honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- ⅓ cup low sodium chicken broth or water
- 1 bunch holy or Thai basil leaves
Instructions
- In a wok over high heat, add the oil, chilies, shallots and garlic, and fry for 1-2 minutes. Add the ground chicken and stir-fry for 2 minutes, breaking up the chicken into small bits.
- Add the sugar, soy sauce, and fish sauce. Stir-fry for another minute and deglaze the pan with the broth. Because your pan is over high heat, the liquid should cook off very quickly. Add the basil, and stir-fry until wilted. Serve over rice.
