Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breasts sliced thinly
  • 2-3 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced into strips
  • 1 white onion sliced into strips
  • 3-4 fresh garlic minced
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • tsp fish sauce
  • 2-4 tbsp fresh Thai basil
  • sea salt to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your wok or pan. Add avocado oil once it's warmed.
  • Next, add in the peppers, onions, and a sprinkle of sea salt. Let cook down until softened. About 5-7 minutes.
  • Push veggies aside and then add in the sliced chicken. The key is to have the chicken sliced thin so it cooks quickly. Pour on the sauce all over the chicken and veggies.
  • Season with sea salt. Cook until the chicken is cooked through completely. And then mix everything together.
  • Add in the Thai basil. Serve with jasmine rice and enjoy!
