Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. First, whisk together broth, coconut aminos, fish sauce, and coconut sugar. If making the Whole30 version, blend the first 3 ingredients with a medjool date until smooth. Set aside.
  2. Heat avocado oil in a skillet over high heat until hot.
  3. Add garlic, chilis, and shallot slices, and cook stirring for 1 minute.
  4. Stir in chicken and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
  5. Pour in the prepared sauce. Cook for about 2 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and heated through.
  6. Add the basil and stir until wilted. Turn off heat.
  7. Optional fried eggs: In a separate pan, heat oil over medium high heat until sizzling hot. Crack the eggs into the pan without breaking the yolk until the whites are cooked, spooning the oil over the eggs.
  8. Serve this healthy Thai basil chicken along with rice or cauliflower rice. Top with a fried egg for each serving.
