Thai-Inspired Basil Chicken with a Spicy Kick

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Tasty, light and simple! I made as stated, except used ~1Tbsp red pepper flake instead of fresh Serrano, since I did not have one. Plenty of bite. I doubled the sauce (water, soy sauce & brown sugar) as suggested, but think I'll even triple it next time since I served over cooked soba noodles. Thanks for sharing!!

    Spicy Thai Chicken With Basil, 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 Recipe#193877 Enjoy!, Tasty, light and simple! I made as stated, except used ~1Tbsp red pepper flake instead of fresh Serrano, since I did not have one Plenty of bite I doubled the sauce (water, soy sauce & brown sugar) as suggested, but think I’ll even triple it next time since I served over cooked soba noodles Thanks for sharing!!, This was very easy and tasty and a great way to use my freshly grown Thai VBasil Like another suggested, I doubled the sauce I didnt have fresh jalapeno so I substituted 3 dried red peppers cut in half to get the seeds too Unlike some other reviews, use of the dried red pepper gave this dish a definite kick that others complained was lacking Will definitely make again
