I made this almost exactly as posted, but used 16 oz. of ground chicken breast, which we like in Thai dishes. I steamed the green beans beforehand so they were a little tender, as I was afraid they would take too long to cook in the stir-fry. This went together very quickly, and was served with brown jasmine rice. Made by a Tasty Tester for ZWT9.

I opted to add red pepper strips and julienned carrots too for additional color. After cooking the meat was dry enough I used it in lettuce wraps. It made a nice weeknight dinner. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

This was quite easy to prepare and we enjoyed the taste. We served it over rice and it was a very nice meal. Only thing is we felt it needed more sauce. Made for ZWT9.

A super easy chicken stir-fry to prepare for a weeknight's family dinner. Served with rice noodles and used fresh Thai basil from my garden. I used gluten-free sauces to make this meal gluten-free. Made for Make my Recipe Tag Game in the Aus/NZ forum. Photo also being posted
