Tip

The chilli paste I use is available from Asian Shops - Chilli Paste with Soya Bean Oil - Pantai Brand (see 2nd photo)

 

We like a lot of sauce to go with rice however if you like less then reduce the oyster sauce and light soy sauce accordingly

 

You can use sweet chill sauce for this recipe however it does change the flavour and will make it spicy compared to the chilli paste with soya bean oil

Also feel free to add vegetables to this dish.

    The flavours are amazing but I did have to add at least 10 mins cooking time for the chickenz. I broke it all up (it had clumped together) and put it back in at the end as it was all raw still. Not sure what I did wrong?!

    This is a regular dish in our household. I always have the ingredients and use up any leftover veg i might have on hand. I always use chicken thigh and no problems with chicken shredding. ANy leftovers always go into single serves with rice into the freezer for our weekday lunches at work. Freezes well!

    Submitted by Yatesh on 6. October 2019 - 19:35.

    A lovely recipe, however I don’t eat chili, so i left it out. I didn’t put as much as the recommended amount of sugar, only 35g, so the sauce was quite overpowering. Not sure if it was the Oyster Sauce, or light Soy Sauce, or both. Can somebody suggest what I can do so the sauce is not so overpowering, as I think this is such a wonderful easy recipe.

    Thanks for the recipe. I'll be cooking it again for sure. I love chilli but I'll be feeding this to my 2 year old so I thought I'd lessen the chilli to 2 tsp. Still DELICIOUS for those that might be nervous with chilli.

    Submitted by Cornelia1958 on 12. June 2019 - 15:24.

    MissTang: soy bean oil is not a separate ingredient - it’s in the chilli paste brand recommended for recipe. The brand used is sometimes difficult to find so you can try any chilli paste/jam you can get hold off. Flavour might be altered but it’s still good.

    Submitted by FMH77 on 25. May 2019 - 19:06.

    This was brilliant!! I did tweak it. 70gms of oyster sauce, 40gms of soy sauce, 20gms of coconut sugar and I couldnt get the chilli paste in the pictures above so I used Ayams Thai Chilli jam - a teaspoon. I cooked for 7 minutes at step 5 and 4 minutes at step 6. Just sensational the house smells amazing!! Miss 9 demolished it and she's a fusspot - she left the cashews.

    If you were so inclined you could add some thinly sliced zucchini and capsicum, which I may do next time or steam some asian greens while its cooking.

    Delicious, family ate it all up. Took on other suggestions:
    - reduced Oyster to 80g
    - soy sauce to 45
    - a dollop of ginger paste
    - XO sauce instead of chilli paste
    - no sugar
    - Added capsicum and blanched broccoli.
    - Cooked 7 mins longer

    One of my favourite dishes to order out and this lived up to expectations. I did use coconut sugar and reduced it to 20g. I made sauce in the thermomix and then cooked chicken and veggies in wok. Next time I would reduce the soy and oyster sauces and increase chicken. Would be a great recipe for feeding a crowd. Thanks.
