Cooker Recipe › Easy Slow Cooker Thai Chicken with Basil

The secret ingredient for this recipe is Thai basil which has a unique taste. Most Asian markets have it and well stocked supermarkets as well. You can substitute with regular basil, but it won't have the typical Thai flavor.

Ingredients

• 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cubed
• 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons fish sauce
• 3 fresh red Thai chile peppers, minced
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
• ½ cup chopped Thai basil, or to taste
• 1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Cooking Directions

1. Combine chicken, bell pepper, soy sauce, fish sauce, Thai chile, lime juice, rice vinegar, and ginger in a slow cooker.
2. Cook on Low until chicken is tender, about 5 1/2 hours. Add basil and cook until wilted into the sauce, about 30 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
