Ingredients
Directions
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Add the rehydrated noodles and the cooked chicken. Toss to combine and stir fry for another 1-2 minutes.
- Add the sauce and toss to evenly coat the noodles, and cook for another 45 seconds.
- Turn off the heat and add the Thai basil. Gently toss to evenly distribute the basil and transfer to a serving bowl.
- Garnish with extra Thai basil.
