Instructions
Creating Sweet And Spicy Thai Chicken is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, fish sauce, chili paste, garlic, ginger, and lime juice. Add the chicken thighs and ensure they are well coated. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and add it to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
4. Add Vegetables: Once the chicken is cooked, add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.
5. Add Marinade: Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
6. Garnish: Remove from heat and stir in the chopped basil or cilantro for added flavor.
7. Serve: Serve the Sweet And Spicy Thai Chicken over cooked jasmine rice, drizzling extra sauce on top if desired.
