Chicken Fried Rice With Thai Basil and Mushrooms
- 4 anaheim chilies
- 12 cup olive oil
- 1 chicken breast, boneless, skinless, diced into cubes
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, rough chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh Thai basil
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 2 cups cooked rice
- I am putting this down just as I did it.
- You could obviously take some short cuts here or there, but it may not be as yummy.
- What kind of chilies you use will effect how hot your dish is.
- I actually used the Anaheim chilies and also a Serrano chili for a little kick.
- Feel free to try different combinations.
- Take a small cast iron skillet (6 in) or other pan and put the chilies in it.
- Pour the oil over them so that they are half submerged.
- Fire up the grill and place the skillet with the chilies on the fire and close cover.
- Grill over Medium-low heat for 20 minutes.
- (You could also do that in the oven).
- While the chilies are roasting, dice your chicken into 1 inches cubes.
- Please the pieces flat on a plate and sprinkle with garlic salt.
- Let sit until ready to cook.
- Rough chop the mushrooms and place them in a bowl.
- Add the minced garlic.
- When the chilies are done they will be very soft.
- Remove them from the grill.
- Remove the chilies from the oil.
- Reserve the oil (it's awesome to dip bread in).
- Cut the stems off the chilies, dice them and add them to the mushrooms and garlic in the bowl.
- Heat up a wok or skillet to smoking hot over high heat.
- Add about 2-3 T of the reserved oil.
- When the oil is very hot add the chicken and stir fry until the chicken is barely done.
- Don't over cook.
- Add the mushrooms, garlic and chilies and stir fry 2-3 minutes Add the Thai Basil, rosemary and fish sauce.
- Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook 2 minutes.
- Turn heat back to high and add the rice.
- Stir fry for 3 minutes.
- Turn off heat, cover and let sit 3 minutes.
- Uncover and serve.
