• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 4 Garlic cloves, minced
• 3 Bird’s eye chilies, finely chopped
• 8 oz Chicken breast or thighs, thinly sliced
• 1 Red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 Carrot, julienned
• 1 Onion, sliced
• 2 tbsp Dark soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Light soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 1 tsp Fish sauce
• 2 tsp Sugar
• 1 cup Fresh Thai basil leaves
• 4 Lime wedges (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Cook the wide rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add minced garlic and chopped bird’s eye chilies to the hot oil. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the thinly sliced chicken and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 5

Toss in the sliced red bell pepper, julienned carrot, and sliced onion. Stir-fry the vegetables for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, and sugar. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Add the cooked rice noodles to the skillet or wok, followed by the sauce mixture. Gently toss everything together to ensure the noodles are evenly coated with the sauce.

Step 8

Sprinkle the fresh Thai basil leaves over the noodles and stir for another 1-2 minutes until the basil is just wilted.

Step 9

Serve hot with optional lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty touch.
