Thai-Style Basil Chicken

Serves4 servings
Method

Steps

  1. Heat the oil in a large skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-heat. When hot, add the chicken, breaking the chicken up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Brown the chicken all over, about 8 – 10 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, basil stems, peppers, and cashews, cook another 2 minutes. Your kitchen smells incredible now!
  2. Pour in the soy sauce, fish sauce, chili paste, and honey. Bring that sauciness to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until thickened and glorious, about 5-8 minutes.
  3. Remove from the heat and stir in the basil and mint leaves.
  4. Serve the chicken over jasmine rice, garnish with sesame seeds, extra herbs and lime wedges. Quick/Easy/Delicious!
