Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Minced chicken
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 units Bird's eye chilies, finely chopped
- 2 units Shallots, finely sliced
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 cup Thai basil leaves
- 3 cups Cooked jasmine rice
Instructions
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and bird's eye chilies to the skillet, stirring constantly until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the shallots to the skillet and stir-fry for another minute until they begin to soften.
Increase the heat to high and add the minced chicken to the skillet. Stir the chicken continually until it is fully cooked and no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix together the fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and water.
Pour the sauce mixture over the cooked chicken and stir well to combine. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Add the Thai basil leaves to the skillet and stir-fry just until they begin to wilt, about 1 minute.
Remove the skillet from the heat and serve the Phad Ka Prao hot over cooked jasmine rice.
