    This is one of the most impressive flavor combinations I’ve had in a long time. So simple, but tastes like you’ve spent hours in the kitchen. I cut the red pepper in half and also the basil because I didn’t have enough. It was perfect. See more in IMI.

    made this without the mushrooms but added some red and orange peppers. It was quite good, but a bit dry. I'm making it again tonight, gonna use fresh lemon basil and a bit more sauce.

    I made this and it was super tasty but all the soy and fish sauce made it very salty for me. I don't usually add much salt to things so I would probably have better results with a low salt soy sauce.

    Hi, KingGonzo :)
    This sounds very much like a Thai Chicken Basil stir-fry that I make, but mine doesn't include the coconut milk -- I bet that's what's been missing !! Thank you for posting this!
