Ingredients(10)

Ground chicken thigh6 oz (170 g)
Large eggs2 each
Full-fat coconut milk2 tbsp (30 ml)
Thai chili peppers, thinly sliced (remove seeds for less heat)1 each
Garlic cloves, minced2 cloves
Fresh Thai basil leaves1/2 cup, packed
Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)1 tbsp (15 ml)
Sesame oil1 tsp (5 ml)
Avocado oil1 tsp (5 ml)
Lime, cut into wedges1 wedge

Instructions

1

Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the minced garlic and sliced Thai chili peppers and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

2

Add the ground chicken thigh to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook, stirring occasionally, until it's browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain off any excess fat if desired.

3

Pour in the coconut milk and soy sauce, stirring to combine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 1 minute to slightly thicken.

4

Push the chicken to one side of the skillet. Crack the two eggs into the empty side. Let them cook undisturbed for about 1 minute until the whites start to set, then gently scramble them with the chicken mixture.

5

Stir in the fresh Thai basil leaves and the sesame oil. Cook for another 30 seconds until the basil is just wilted and fragrant.

6

Serve immediately. Arrange the stir-fry in a bowl. Garnish with a wedge of fresh lime for squeezing over the top.
