- This Thai basil chicken, or Pad Krapow Gai, is a fantastic stir-fry with chicken, spicy chilis, a sweet and savoury sauce and the aromatic, almost herbal notes, of Thai basil its so deliciously easy to make.
Free printable recipe is available on our site: www.kitchensanctuary.com/thai...
Ingredients
2 tbsp oil
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs trimmed and chopped into small chunks (about 800g)
4 Thai chillies thinly sliced (remove the seeds if you want a little less heat)
4 cloves garlic peeled and minced
8 spring onions scallions sliced (use the white and green parts)
small bunch of Thai basil leaves (about 40g/1.4oz), sliced into thin strips (or use Holy basil if you can get hold of it)
Sauce:
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce
½ tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp light brown sugar
4 tbsp water
1 tsp cornflour (cornstarch)
To serve:
boiled rice
fried egg
sweet chilli sauce
Instructions
Heat the oil in a wok over a high heat.
Add the chicken and cooking, stirring often for 4-5 minutes, until the chicken is nearly cooked through (it should cook fairly quickly as the pieces are small. The chicken doesn't need to be browned).
While the chicken is cooking, mix the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl or jug.
Add the chillies, garlic and spring onions to the chicken. Fry, stirring constantly for 1 minute.
Add the sauce and fry for 1-2 minutes, until hot.
Add the Thai basil and toss together. Cook for a further 30 seconds, then turn off the heat and serve.
I like to serve mine with boiled rice, topped with a fried egg and a good drizzle of Thai sweet chilli sauce.

Have you tried Thai Basil before?
I have actually made this dish on my channel like a year ago I believe, it was suggested to me by some traveling friends... it was FANTASTIC!!!
Yes, yes, yes! This is one of my favourites, but I had no idea how to cook it, thanks! 😍🤩💖
I find it astonishing that this dear lady doesn't have at least a few million subscribers. Her recipes are WONDERFUL, and she is delightful! People are really missing out!
Oooh I’m so excited!! My book arrived today so just wanted to say thank u!! I’m so looking forward to it, the last one is well thumbed and stained lol x @kitchensanctuary
I really like your new background music. And the dish looks amazing
This is delicious 😋
Looks pretty easy. I would love a plate 😊 Thanks Nikki
You’re welcome 😊
That looks and sounds delicious. I'll have to try cooking it (just need to find the Thai basil first).
That bottle action, your partner is a happy man!!!😂
I'm Thai. It looks yummy!
Thank you 😋
Wow! That looks awesome! Be doing this for sure! Thank you!
Oh yummy. Thanks Nicky
A specially grand cooking

Yay thank you 😋
I’m going to try this tonite Niki.
Hope you enjoy.
Yummo 😀
Well done Nicky …where can we get Thai Basil ?
We got ours from Sainsbury's but I believe they also stock it in Waitrose. You can always try an Asian supermarket if you're lucky enough to have one close to you.
❤❤❤
Can you use normal basil leaves or would that not work ? Cant find thai basil anywhere
Pailin of Hot Thai Kitchen on RUclips says yes you can. I've never tried it though asI can easily get the Thai Sweet Basil used here. I can't get the Thai Holy Basil though, which is called Krapow inThai.
The gra pow looks amazing, but is that basmati? 😂
Holy Basil specifically. THere are two types of Thai basil.
Good luck trying to get holy basil, it's all most impossible, I believe, either Waitrose or Sainsbury's sell Thai basil, which is a good substitute. eat it cucumber
Can get holy basic at a lot of Chinese and oriental style supermarkets.
@@haveanotherpinacolada There's only a couple of Chinese / oriental super markets in my neck of the woods, and none sell it, I have tried online as well without success. I must eat this 3 times a day when in Thailand, my favourite

I’ve just tried to get the list of ingredients from your website, albeit using my mobile phone, what an atrocious experience trying to navigate around the recipes.
It’s just full of adverts and junk.
You're NOT measuring anything. That's just guess work. Come on man!
We who cook well do it with our senses. I cook a lot like Nikki. I have measuring spoons and cups if I want to copy someone else.
Good Thai chefs never measure anything either. This presenter is at chef level, even for Asian cooking! The measures she provides are for us nubes.
Nicky this looks absolutely fantastic 😀 😊😊 I've made this dish before so i know exactly how good it is...lol... and spicy which I love ❤️ 😊😊now you have me wanting to make it again 😊😊😊 thank you so much dear friend for sharing your amazing recipe 😀 😊😊
❤Annie
So good!
@nutthanichakittisuphapipha3879 would love to taste the dish. I would too.
