Gai Gra Pow Thai Basil Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk chicken broth, oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a bowl until well blended.
• Heat large skillet over high heat. Drizzle in oil. Add chicken and stir fry until it loses its raw color, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in shallots, garlic, and sliced chilies. Continue cooking on high heat until some of the juices start to caramelize in the bottom of the pan, about 2 or 3 more minutes. Add about a tablespoon of the sauce mixture to the skillet; cook and stir until sauce begins to caramelize, about 1 minute.
• Pour in the rest of the sauce. Cook and stir until sauce has deglazed the bottom of the pan. Continue to cook until sauce glazes onto the meat, 1 or 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
• Stir in basil. Cook and stir until basil is wilted, about 20 seconds. Serve with rice.

Steps:

• Cook the rice according to directions. Mince the garlic, hot peppers, and ginger together and place in wok or large frying pan with the olive oil. Clean and pick basil - it may appear to be a lot of leaves, but the leaves will shrink when cooked - and you can never have too much basil in this dish. Fry the garlic, hot peppers, and ginger in the olive oil over high heat. After several minutes, when the garlic starts to turn brown, drop in the ground chicken. Stir and "chop" the chicken until all liquid from the chicken is gone and the tiny pieces of chicken start to become slightly crispy. This could take anywhere from 5 - 15 minutes, depending on the amount of juice in the chicken. Stir in the sugar and fish sauce and then add the basil. Fold the basil in to mix it with the meat. Serve the gai gra pow over rice and garnish with strips of fresh sweet peppers. If the dish is not hot enough, you can add sambal oelek to taste.

Steps:

• Heat a wok or large nonstick skillet over medium-high, then swirl in the oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the ground chicken and cook, actively breaking the chicken up into small pieces, until it is mostly cooked, about 6 minutes.
• Stir in the garlic, sugar and chile until evenly distributed and fragrant, about 2 minutes, then add the green beans, oyster sauce, fish sauce and Thai seasoning, and cook, stirring constantly, until the chicken is fully cooked, the green beans are crisp-tender and the krapow is glossy, about 2 minutes.
• Remove from heat, add the basil and a dash of white pepper and toss to combine. If the sauce seems to cling too tightly to the mixture, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water to make it loose and glossy.
• Serve over rice, and top with a crispy fried egg, if desired. Serve with additional Thai seasoning to sprinkle on top, according to taste.
