Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp (20g) fish sauce
  • 1 Tbsp (15g) regular soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp (15g) dark soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp (35g) oyster sauce
  • 2-3 Tbsp vegetable oil, plus extra
  • 8 oz (227g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into ½” pieces
  • 1 large shallot, peeled and thinly sliced
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • 8 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 red Fresno chile, stemmed finely chopped
  • 2 Thai chilies, stemmed and thinly sliced
  • 8 oz (227g) wide or broad dried rice noodles, rehydrated according to package directions
  • 1 cup (13g) Thai basil leaves, plus extra for garnish

Directions

  1. In the small bowl, whisk the fish sauce, the regular and dark soy sauces, and the oyster sauce until combined. Set aside until ready to use.
  2. In a seasoned wok set over high heat, add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom and sides. Once the oil begins to smoke, add the chicken and sear for 2 minutes. Continue to cook for another 4-5 minutes, stirring often. Transfer the thoroughly cooked chicken to a bowl.
  3. Add another 2 Tbsp oil to the wok and heat until smoking. Add the shallots and season lightly with salt. Stir fry until the shallots begin to turn translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add both chilies and saute for 30 seconds. 
  4. Add the rehydrated noodles and the cooked chicken. Toss to combine and stir fry for another 1-2 minutes.
  5. Add the sauce and toss to evenly coat the noodles, and cook for another 45 seconds. 
  6. Turn off the heat and add the Thai basil. Gently toss to evenly distribute the basil and transfer to a serving bowl. 
  7. Garnish with extra Thai basil.
