Chicken, Chili, and Basil

No set recipe here, and no measured ingredients per say. This is a typical Thai meal, spicy, and goes together quickly. Photos are mine that I took yesterday while my wife cooked this.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Course Main Dish
Cuisine Thai
Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken legs, skin and bones removed, slightly chopped
  • 20-30 Bird's Eye Chilis, slightly mashed, seeds and all
  • 4-6 cloves garlic, smashed and chopped
  • fresh Thai Basil, several good handfuls

Instructions
 

  • Heat a heavy non-stick pan (or a wok) with some oil and add the chilis and garlic and cook for a few minutes.
  • Add the chicken meat and stir to combine with the chili and garlic and cook until juices run clear, about 10 minutes, stir occasionally.
  • Rinse the basil and squeeze dry and add to the pan.
  • Cook until the basil is wilted, serve with rice.

Notes

The cost for the 4 chicken legs is minimal, the chilies came from our garden. This is probably a 30 to 50 cent meal per person, for easily 6 people.
