Hi, KingGonzo :)
This sounds very much like a Thai Chicken Basil stir-fry that I make, but mine doesn't include the coconut milk -- I bet that's what's been missing !! Thank you for posting this!


Thank you for sharing this recipe! The flavor combination sounds wonderful. =)


Thanks for sharing a great post. I love stir-fry and I have this one bookmarked to try. :)


Hi there... looks good. would like to try this, love chicken.. i have all the ingredients here except for the rice wine vinegar. would it make a big difference if i omit it, or do you have any good substitute?


I made this and it was super tasty but all the soy and fish sauce made it very salty for me. I don't usually add much salt to things so I would probably have better results with a low salt soy sauce.


Made this without the mushrooms but added some red and orange peppers. It was quite good, but a bit dry. I'm making it again tonight, gonna use fresh lemon basil and a bit more sauce.


5 from me!
