How I learned to make it from friends of family! Yes, the fats are alarming and probably from the chicken and cannot be helped. You can probably make a healthier version of this with shrimp.Note: I omitted the usual Fish Sauce because it is not listed and it is so salty that I usually try to omit it or use very little. However, if you aren't watching your sodium as closely as I am go right ahead! It really does add an authentic thai flavor.I'll probably post my healthier take on this soon.Second note: BASIL IS FRESH BASIL. Not herbal.

How Do I Make Traditional Thai Basil Fried Rice?

Here is how you make Traditional Thai Basil Fried Rice:

(Prep time can be knocked right down to 15 minutes if you make your rice a day ahead. I put the prep time because if you dont, you need to refrigerate or freeze the rice for about 2 and a half hours.)1. Medium high to high heat- Use a wok or large skillet to heat sesame oil in, once it is hot enough to cook add garlic, chopped serrano pepper and chicken. A mortar and pestle is a traditional way to crush the garlic and peppers but a knife's flat edge can also be used. I tend to chop the pepper and use minced garlic. 2 minutes2. Cook chicken at medium-high heat with the garlic and pepper mix until thoroughly heated through. About 7 minutes3. Add cold rice, fish sauce or soy sauce, oyster sauce and stir-fry the rice until its coated/brown. About 4 minutes, more if you like the heat to further crisp the rice a bit.4. Add fresh basil and stir about for another minute or two. (I like to add some dried basil with the fresh for extra taste.5. Serve!Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user PITCHEH.
