1 chicken breast, about 6 ounces, thinly sliced
2 cups cooked rice
2 cups fresh basil leaves
2-3 Thai chili peppers
2-3 garlic cloves
1 1/2 teaspoons Thai Golden Mountain seasoning sauce (or Maggi sauce)

Instructions
1. Marinate the chicken with Golden Mountain seasoning sauce and brown sugar for about 10 minutes.
