This Thai basil chicken recipe takes just 30 minutes and is so full of flavor you won\u2019t believe it\u2019s chicken breast! Of course you can use whatever part of the chicken you prefer. I love the taste of this dish so much, especially served with jasmine rice or <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/coconut-rice\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">coconut rice.<\/a> It\u2019s just as good as a Thai restaurant, for less than half the cost!<\/p>\n<p>When you order this dish at a Thai restaurant, it\u2019s called Pad Krapow Gai. This dish is made with red bell peppers, but you can serve it with other vegetables like <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/air-fryer-frozen-broccoli\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">air fryer frozen broccoli<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/garlic-edamame\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">garlic edamame<\/a>. You can add a <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/sunny-side-up-eggs\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">fried egg<\/a> to make this dish extra filling and flavorful. It\u2019s basically a <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/garlic-chicken-stir-fry\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">chicken stir fry<\/a> so add whatever you think would taste good! The more you add to the pan, the more flavors combine to make a delicious dish.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-ingredients\">Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p>This Thai basil chicken is a simple recipe that you really can\u2019t get wrong. These ingredients are simple and straightforward. If you can get the ingredients from an Asian market, the dish will taste much more traditional. You can find the measurements below in the recipe card.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Chicken Breasts:<\/strong> You can use chicken thighs, or even ground turkey instead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Canola Oil:  <\/strong>You can use vegetable oil instead. This is for cooking the chicken and veggies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shallot: <\/strong>They are a subtle flavor but add so much flavor to the chicken.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Red Peppers: <\/strong>Sweet bell peppers are the perfect thing to make with the chicken.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Thai Chili, or Serrano Pepper:<\/strong> A little heat really takes this dish to the next level! I think it tastes great with Thai chili or serrano chilis, so grab whatever you can find and it will be perfect.<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2wEedgz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Soy Sauce<\/a>:<\/strong> This is a fermented soy bean sauce that is salty and so full of flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oyster Sauce:<\/strong> This is a sweet and salty sauce made mostly from oyster juices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fish Sauce:<\/strong> Fish sauce has a little fish flavor, but mostly it is salty and very umami.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brown Sugar:<\/strong> A little brown sugar makes the sauce the perfect consistency and helps balance the sweetness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Thai Basil:<\/strong> Thai holy basil is the type of basil that you will want to grab. You should be able to find it at your local Asian market.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" alt=\"Process photos showing how to cook the ingredients in a wok.\" class=\"wp-image-203665\" title=\"Thai Basil Chicken is a quick and easy chicken dinner that is bursting with fresh flavors.

If you have a wok, this is a great recipe to make in it. It also works great in a skillet or cast iron pan. Whatever you use, make sure to heat the oil first before adding the chicken. Basil is a really fragile ingredient, so make sure you add it in after turning off the burner.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Cook Chicken:<\/strong> Add the oil to the wok and heat over medium-high heat.

Here are a few tips for making this dish authentic and just the way you and your family like it!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ground Turkey: <\/strong>This dish is often made with ground turkey. Use ground turkey or ground chicken instead of chicken breast. You can also make a ground beef dish (<a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/thai-basil-beef\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Thai Basil Beef<\/a>) using the same ingredients and it\u2019s amazing!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sourcing Ingredients:<\/strong> This dish will taste more authentic if you get the ingredients from an Asian market. It can also be really fun to explore new marketplaces other than your regular grocery store. You will find lots of fresh produce and ingredients you can\u2019t get anywhere else!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add More Spice:<\/strong> This dish is traditionally spicy. If you want to add more spice, you can add more chili peppers. If you really want to turn up the heat, include the seeds. If you are on the other end and don\u2019t want this dish spicy, you can leave out the spicy peppers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-quick-tips__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-quick-tips --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"1000\" alt=\"A close up of Thai basil chicken.\" class=\"wp-image-203642\" title=\"Thai Basil Chicken is a quick and easy chicken dinner that is bursting with fresh flavors.
