Thai basil adds an anise nuance, and cinnamon basil contributes notes of spice to this quick chicken stir-fry; however, other basil varieties work well too. Serve with hot cooked rice. Asian fish sauce is available in most supermarkets and in Asian grocer

Ingredients

1 pound boned, skinned chicken breast halves 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger 1/4 teaspoon hot chili flakes 2/3 cup fat-skimmed chicken broth 1 tablespoon Asian fish sauce (nuoc mam or nam pla) or soy sauce 2 teaspoons cornstarch 3 cups lightly packed fresh basil leaves (see notes), rinsed Salt

Instructions

Rinse chicken and pat dry. Cut crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick strips 2 to 3 inches long. Place a 10- to 12-inch nonstick frying pan over high heat; when hot, add oil, garlic, ginger, chili flakes, and the chicken. Stir often until chicken is no longer pink in the center (cut to test), 3 to 4 minutes. In a small bowl, mix broth, fish sauce, and cornstarch until smooth. Add to pan and stir until sauce is boiling, about 1 minute. Add basil leaves and stir just until barely wilted, about 30 seconds. Add salt to taste and pour into a serving bowl.
