Named after the three main ingredients in the sauce: 1. Soy Sauce 2. Alcohol (Sake in my recipe) 3. Sesame Oil
Definitely not a traditional recipe, but I like it! Some would argue that there isn’t enough sesame flavor since I am using so little sesame oil. But it’s more economical to cook with regular cooking oil then drizzle the sesame oil at the last minute.
Ingredients:
- 3 boneless chicken thighs, cut into small bite-sized pieces
- 4 slices fresh ginger
- 4 cloves garlic, smashed
- 2 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 2-3 tablespoons (a small pour around the pan) sake
- small spoon of sugar (optional)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- large handful of fresh basil, torn in to large pieces
- Heat your pan with cooking oil, then add ginger and garlic. Cook until fragrant.
- Add chicken and cook for about a minute
- Add the soy sauce, oyster sauce and stir still coated
- Add the sake, stir, then allow the sauce to thicken and chicken to cook through
- Add sugar, then stir in the basil. Cook until the basil is cooked through
- Take off the heat and drizzle sesame oil. Stir to combine
- Serve with lots of white rice
