Serve with “Hom Mali Rice” – Thai Jasmine Rice or Rice Berry Rice Thai Basil Chicken Pasta (Thai Bolognese)
1lb of Ground Chicken (not ground chicken breast, too dry)
3 Tbsp of Neutral Oil 1 Small Yellow Onion, minced
3 Cloves of Garlic, sliced
1 Large (or 2 smaller) Carrot, peeled and diced
1/2 of a Red Bell Pepper
5oz of Button Mushrooms, sliced
1/2 pint of Cherry or Grape Tomatoes, halved
2 Thai Chiles 3/4 cup of Chicken Stock
3 Tbsp of Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp of Oyster Sauce
1 Tbsp of Fish Sauce
1 1/2 Tbsp of Palm Sugar
Thai Basil
10oz of Pappardelle or Fettuccini
Salt to taste 1) Fill a large pot with water, add a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil. 2) In a large skillet or shallow dutch oven (make sure it’s big enough to hold everything including the pasta) add 1tbsp of the oil, get it nice and hot, then add the ground chicken along with a pinch of salt and cook until fully cooked through and lightly browned, remove to a plate and set aside. 3) In the same skillet, add the remaining oil along with the onions, tomatoes, chilies and garlic, cook about 2 minutes, then add the bell peppers, carrot and mushrooms, sautee about 5-7 minutes on medium heat until they begin to soften, meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of chicken stock, oyster sauce, soy, fish sauce and the palm sugar (cut the palm sugar into small pieces and it will dissolve in the hot skillet) set aside. 4) At this point, add the pasta to the salted boiling water, cook according to package instructions. Deglaze the veggie mixture with 1/4 cup of the chicken stock, cook for about 30 seconds, add the cooked chicken along with the sauce in your skillet with the veggies, cook on medium low for the same amount of the time the pasta needs to cook (take it out a minute shy of al dente so you can cook it with the sauce for the last minute) 5) Add the basil to the sauce, drain the pasta (reserve about 1/2 cup of the starchy cooking water) add it to the sauce along with a splash of the pasta water, cook on medium high heat for a minute or two or until the pasta becomes glossy and the sauce thickens and adheres to the pasta.
