Thai Ground Chicken Basil

This delightful recipe closely mirrors the Ground Chicken Basil dish from my favorite Thai restaurant. Despite searching extensively, I couldn't find a recipe that captures its authentic taste until now. Plus, it's quick and straightforward to prepare! Pair it with steamed rice if desired.
