directions
- Prepare jasmine rice according to package directions.
- In a large wok, heat oil until its very hot.

- Be very careful not to let the red pepper flakes scorch! Trust me, this was learned the hard way.
- Cook chicken until it is no longer pink.
- Add garlic, onion, and bell peppers.
- Cook until the onions and bell peppers are cooked but still have some crispness. You don't want them to be too soft.
- Stir frequently.
- Remove wok from heat. Add cleaned fresh basil leaves by tearing into pieces and removing stems.
