Krapow Khai Yat Sai
Krapow Khai Yat Sai (Thai Stuffed Spicy Basil-Chicken Omelet)
Ingredients
1 tablespoon Thai thin soy
sauce (such as Healthy Boy) (see Note)
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon white pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil,
divided
1 tablespoon ground
Thai chile
2 medium garlic cloves, roughly
chopped (about 2 teaspoons)
8 ounces ground chicken
1/2 cup thinly sliced red
bell pepper (from 1 small [6-ounce] bell pepper)
1/4 cup packed fresh Thai basil
leaves (about 1/4 ounce), plus more for garnish
3 large eggs
Directions
Stir together soy sauce, oyster sauce,
sugar, and white pepper in a small bowl; set aside. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a
14-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add Thai chile and garlic; cook,
stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add chicken; cook,
stirring often to break meat into small pieces, until no longer pink, about 6
minutes. Add bell pepper and basil; cook, stirring often, until bell pepper is
softened and basil is well combined, about 1 minute and 30 seconds. Add soy
sauce mixture; cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is mostly evaporated
and chicken is browned in spots, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Transfer
chicken mixture to a medium bowl. Remove 4 to 5 bell pepper strips from
mixture, and reserve for garnish. Wipe skillet clean.
Whisk together eggs in a medium bowl until
very smooth and slightly frothy, about 30 seconds. Return skillet to heat over
medium. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet, and swirl to coat skillet.
Add eggs, and swirl skillet in a circular motion to spread eggs in an even,
thin layer. Cook, undisturbed, until eggs are just set and beginning to release
from sides of skillet, 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Place chicken mixture on center of egg
sheet in skillet. Using a spatula, fold 4 sides of egg sheet over filling,
overlapping in middle of omelet to form a square pouch. Carefully, hold an
inverted plate over omelet; flip skillet and plate to release omelet, seam side
down, onto plate. Using a small knife, cut a 4-inch X through top egg layer of
omelet, leaving 1/2 inch uncut at each corner. Fold back egg flaps to reveal
filling. Garnish with reserved bell pepper and additional basil. Serve
immediately.
