Spicy Basil Chicken Rice Cakes

Have you been searching for the perfect easy chicken stir fry recipe? Here it is!! In just about 15-20 mins, you can make your very own SPICY BASIL CHICKEN RICE CAKES!! This recipe is a fusion of two of my favorite Asian dishes: Pad Krapow Gai (Thai basil chicken) and Nian Gao (stir fried Shanghai rice cakes).

It should take you about 5-10 minutes to prep your ingredients, and then let the stir frying begin! The recipe moves quickly, so you may want to preview the video before you get started.

To finish off this Asian fusion recipe is a stir fry sauce. This easy stir fry sauce recipe contains soy sauce, fish sauce, and brown sugar to take this dish to the next level.

As long as you follow this step-by-step tutorial, you will be enjoying some seriously tasty, chewy, spicy goodness for lunch or dinner! If you want to turn this into a keto-friendly recipe, no problem! You can sub the brown sugar for monk fruit sweetener. You can also have this as a tasty vegetarian lunch or dinner by swapping out the chicken for tofu. But, the TTEOK (Korean rice cakes) are the BEST part!

I just recommend you slice everything into thin pieces — looks better, cooks faster and tastes better IMO.
