Thai Spicy Stir Fry Chicken
"Make this as spicey as you want or as mild. This is one Thai recipe without peanuts it is from the figment of my imagination, tweaked twice. This is the type of recipe you may change ingredients at will , use up left overs etc etc. Have fun with it. I like to serve it over Chow Mein Fried Noodles. Add fresh Jalapeneo peppers too if you like. There are many Hot/sweet Thai Chili sauces but I like UFC brand. If you like your veggies well cooked steam the carrots until tender before adding to the pan.. I like mine crunchie so I use them raw."

This was pretty good. The sauce was better before I let it reduce a bit (I wanted it thicker). It got so sweet, I would definitely use less sugar next time, but the sauce before it was cooked, I could drink through a straw. It was delish. All in all, I really liked this recipe. not sure I would call it Thai, but it is a good, healthy stir fry. Next time I add all the veggies I can get my hands on! Thanks for the recipe! -
Yuck, OK, I'm no chef, but I've eaten in lots of Thai restaurants, visited Thailand, and cooked Thai food. Ugh, all that sugar! Nasty!!! Also, I would definitely substitute basil for cilantro. This recipe was all wrong, even if you categorize it as Asian fusion. I can't even eat the leftovers, never mind make it again. -
I absolutely loved this dish! Thanks so much for posting. I will make this repeatedly.

I am giving this wonderful recipe a new review. It is one of our favourites now that I have adjusted the chile sauce down to 1 tbsp. (Somehow, I think I must be using the wrong stuff to only use 20% of the posted amount!)It is the recipe that always comes to mind when I think "stirfry" and has become a regular in our house.

Small town in the Okanagan, B.C.
On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine.
I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help.
My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods.
I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England!
In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
