DH and I love spicy foods. I have made this dish many, many times. It came from my Asian Hot & Spicy Cookbook. This is so simple to make, it requires zero effort...which I'm all about! Great served with rice and my Chili Lime Chickpeas. Enjoy! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons canola oil |
1 tablespoon sesame oil |
4 garlic cloves, minced |
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and minced |
2 serrano peppers or 2 jalapeno peppers, minced |
1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
1 tablespoon water |
2 teaspoons brown sugar |
1/2 cup fresh basil leaf, torn into big pieces |
5 green onions, cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces |
1 lb chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes |
Directions:
1. Saute garlic, ginger and peppers in canola and sesame oils in a large wok or skillet for about 1 minute.
2. Increase heat to high and add chicken. Stir-fry until chicken is browned, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in soy sauce, water and brown sugar. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 5 more minutes or until chicken is completely cooked through.
4. Add in basil and scallions. Serve!
