How to Make Thai Chicken Stir Fried With Holy Basil Gai Pad Graprow
- Rinse and pick through 1 cup of fresh holy basil leaves (or substitute with 1 cup fresh basil, or ½ cup Thai basil and ½ cup fresh mint leaves). If using dried holy basil, soak 2 tablespoons in warm water for 10-15 minutes. Remove stems and drain.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until it begins to smoke.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic and 2 finely sliced shallots. Stir-fry for 15 seconds.

- Add 2-4 fresh Thai chilies (adjust to your spice preference), thinly sliced, and 2-3 slivered kaffir lime leaves (optional). Stir-fry for 30 seconds.
- Add the drained holy basil (fresh or reconstituted).
- Add 1 tablespoon black soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon fish sauce (adjust to taste). Stir-fry for another minute.
- Add the fresh basil leaves and stir well to wilt, about 30 seconds.
