For the Sauce:
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 1 to 2 Tbsp fish sauce to taste
- 2 Tbsp coconut aminos or soy sauce, or liquid aminos
- 1 Tbsp coconut sugar or coconut aminos
For the Chicken:
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil
- 1/2 cup yellow onion finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1.25 lbs chicken breast chopped, boneless skinless
- 2 Thai chilis minced, optional
- 1 cup basil chopped, leaves

- Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped yellow onion and saute, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and chopped chicken. Allow chicken to sit untouched 2 to 3 minutes to brown. Stir in the thai chilies and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, another 2 minutes.
- Pour the sauce into the skillet with the chicken and bring to a full boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and allow it to cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken has cooked through, about 5 to 10 minutes. If desired, continue cooking 10 minutes to reduce sauce and make thicker.
