Instructions

Step 1/4

Cook the Rice

  • 50g Basmati Rice

In a sauce pot prepare your basmati rice in a pot according to package instructions.

Step 2/4

Prepare Ingredients and Cook the Chicken

  • 150g Minced Chicken
  • 2 Garlic Cloves
  • 2 Red Thai Chilies
  • 1/2 Onion
  • 2 tsp Olive Oil

Mince the chicken breast if not already done. Mince the garlic cloves and the red Thai chilies. Finely dice the onion. Heat avocado oil in a pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced chilies, and stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the minced chicken and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until it's no longer pink, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 5 minutes.

Step 3/4

Add the Sauces and Basil

  • 1 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp Fish Sauce
  • 1 tsp Sugar
  • 60mL Chicken Broth
  • 50g Holy Basil Leaves

Add the diced onion to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, and sugar. Mix well to coat the chicken. Add the chicken broth or water and let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens. Add the holy basil leaves and stir-fry until wilted, about 1 minute.

Step 4/4

Serve

Serve the Pad Kra Pao hot, over a bed of cooked rice.
