How to Make Thai Spicy Basil Fried Rice
- Whisk together 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Spray a wok or large frying pan with olive oil spray and heat over medium-high heat.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic and 2-3 Thai chili peppers (adjust to your spice preference), finely sliced. Stir-fry for 30 seconds.
- Add 1/2 cup sliced red bell pepper and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Stir-fry until the onion is translucent (about 3-4 minutes).
- (Optional) Add 1 cup cooked chicken or beef (cubed) with the onion and red pepper. Cook until chicken is done or beef is medium (about 5-7 minutes).
- Push the ingredients to one side of the wok/pan. Add 2 large eggs and quickly scramble them.
- Add the oyster sauce mixture and stir everything together.
- Raise the heat to high. Add 3 cups chilled cooked rice.
- Stir until the rice is well coated with the sauce, breaking up clumps with the back of a spoon.
- Add more soy, oyster, or fish sauce to taste.
- Once the rice is hot and everything is well combined, remove from heat.
- Stir in 1/2 cup Thai sweet basil leaves.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired. Serve immediately.
