About Basil chicken
Basil Chicken, also known as Thai Basil Chicken or "Pad Kra Pao," is a flavorful dish originating from Thailand. It features tender pieces of chicken stir-fried with garlic, chili peppers, and fresh Thai basil. A harmonious blend of soy sauce, oyster sauce, and fish sauce creates its savory and slightly spicy profile. Often served over rice and topped with a fried egg, this dish is a staple in Thai street food. Basil Chicken is high in protein from the chicken and offers antioxidants from the fresh basil. The inclusion of chili peppers can boost metabolism, but the sodium content from sauces may be high, especially when prepared with prepackaged options. Opting for reduced-sodium sauces can make this meal healthier while preserving its authentic taste. Quick to prepare and packed with vibrant flavors, Basil Chicken is both delicious and versatile, offering a balanced mix of nutrients and indulgence.
