SPICY THAI BASIL CHICKEN (PAD KRAPOW GAI)
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.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you save time and avoid scrambling.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your stir-fry the best flavor. If possible, use organic or locally grown ingredients.
- Choose the right cooking oil: Use a high-heat oil, such as grapeseed oil or avocado oil, for stir-frying. These oils can withstand high temperatures without burning.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When stir-frying, it's important not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the ingredients from cooking evenly.
- Stir-fry in batches: If you have a lot of ingredients, stir-fry them in batches. This will help you avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure that everything cooks evenly.
- Don't overcook the ingredients: Stir-fries are meant to be cooked quickly. Overcooking the ingredients will make them tough and chewy.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. Be careful not to over-season the dish.
