SPICY THAI BASIL CHICKEN (PAD KRAPOW GAI) RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Spicy Thai Basil Chicken (Pad Krapow Gai) Recipe | Allrecipes image

My version of this classic Thai dish has spectacular taste even with regular basil instead of Thai or holy basil. The sauce actually acts like a glaze as the chicken mixture cooks over high heat. The recipe works best if you chop or grind your own chicken and have all ingredients prepped before you start cooking.

Categories     Thai Main Dishes

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

⅓ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce, or as needed
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, coarsely chopped
¼ cup sliced shallots
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons minced Thai chilies, Serrano, or other hot pepper
1 cup very thinly sliced fresh basil leaves
2 cups hot cooked rice

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.

Provided by Liberty Mendez

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 20

150g dried flat rice noodles
4 tbsp sunflower oil
2 garlic cloves , crushed
1 red chilli , finely chopped
2 chicken breasts, sliced finely sliced
½ small pack coriander , leaves picked, and stalks finely chopped
60g spring onions , shredded (reserving some to serve)
2 tbsp chopped pickled turnip (optional)
50ml chicken stock
100g beansprouts
2 eggs
60g roasted unsalted peanuts , chopped
soy sauce , to serve
fresh red chilli , sliced, to serve (optional)
2 tbsp tamarind paste
2 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp light brown soft sugar
1 lime , half juiced, half cut into wedges to serve
½ tbsp siracha
pinch chilli powder (optional)

Steps:

  • Soak the noodles in warm water for about 20 mins or until al dente, then drain. Meanwhile, make the sauce by mixing together the tamarind paste, fish sauce, sugar, lime and siracha until smooth.
  • Heat half the oil in a frying pan or a wok over a medium heat. Add the garlic and chilli and fry for 30 seconds until fragrant. Tip in the chicken and cook for 5 mins until golden. Add the coriander stalks, spring onions and turnip (if using), and fry for 1 min. Add in the soaked noodles, 50ml of the chicken stock and the prepared sauce. Keep stir-frying the noodles until they’re starting to dry, then add the sauce. Stir everything together and cook over a high heat for 3 mins until the noodles are just cooked. Add a splash more water if needed.
  • When the sauce has reduced, scatter over the beansprouts and fold them into the noodles. Push everything to one side of the pan, then pour in the rest of the oil on the empty side and crack in the eggs. Fry for 2 mins until the white is just set and beginning to crisp around the edges, then roughly scramble the runny yolks in with the whites. When the eggs have just set, combine with the noodles.
  • Scatter over half of the peanuts and quickly toss together. Divide between two plates with the remaining peanuts and spring onion, the lime wedges and soy sauce on the side.
