SPICY THAI CHICKEN STIR FRY

Steps:

• Mix Sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
• Heat oil in a wok or heavy based skillet over high heat. Add garlic and chilli - cook for 15 seconds.
• Add onion and cook for 45 seconds.
• Add chicken and cook, breaking it up as you go. When it changes from pink to white, add Sauce. Cook until the liquid mostly disappears - about 2 minutes.
• Stir through shallots. Then stir through coriander and immediately take off the heat.
• Serve immediately with jasmine rice or other rice - or for a low carb, low cal option, try Cauliflower Rice! Add slices of cucumber and tomato wedges (very authentic Thai!). Garnish with extra chilli and coriander if desired.

EASY STIR-FRIED THAI GARLIC SHRIMP

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a bowl, combine oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, lime juice, and chili pepper. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
• Place shrimp in the marinade and stir well to coat.
• In a wok or frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the shrimp along with the marinade.
• Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes or until the shrimp are plump and pink. They will also be lightly browned from the sauce. Avoid overcooking or the shrimp will turn rubbery.
• Test the sauce for taste and adjust as needed to achieve a salty-sweet balance. Add more sugar if it's too sour. If it's too salty or sweet, add more lime juice.
• Top the shrimp with coriander and add some lemon slices on the side. Enjoy!

SPICY THAI BASIL CHICKEN (PAD KRAPOW GAI)

Steps:

• Whisk chicken broth, oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a bowl until well blended.
• Heat large skillet over high heat. Drizzle in oil. Add chicken and stir fry until it loses its raw color, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in shallots, garlic, and sliced chilies. Continue cooking on high heat until some of the juices start to caramelize in the bottom of the pan, about 2 or 3 more minutes. Add about a tablespoon of the sauce mixture to the skillet; cook and stir until sauce begins to caramelize, about 1 minute.
• Pour in the rest of the sauce. Cook and stir until sauce has deglazed the bottom of the pan. Continue to cook until sauce glazes onto the meat, 1 or 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.
• Stir in basil. Cook and stir until basil is wilted, about 20 seconds. Serve with rice.

ALL-PURPOSE STIR-FRY SAUCE (BROWN GARLIC SAUCE)

• Add the soy sauce mixture; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the cornstarch solution and cook, stirring, until the sauce boils and thickens.

THAI GARLIC SAUCE RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Place all ingredients, except garlic and cornstarch in a sauce pan over medium-high heat. When sauce begins to bubble, reduce heat to medium-low. Now add the minced garlic and cornstarch (dissolved in water). Stir until the sauce thickens slightly, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Do a taste test. You're looking for a balance of salty (fish sauce), spicy (garlic and chili), sour (lime), and sweet (sugar). Adjust these flavors to suit your taste. Add a little veggie oil to wok, add carrots, add some of the wine. Add all veggies and 1/3 of sauce. Add remaining sauce and tofu.
