BEGIN BY PREPPING THE INGREDIENTS - SLICE UP THE PEPPERS, GARLIC AND ONIONS.
PREPARE THE SAUCE BY WHISKING TOGETHER OYSTER SAUCE, GARLIC, BROWN SUGAR, SOY SAUCE AND CHILI SLICES.
PREHEAT THE SKILLET AND ADD IN SOME OLIVE OIL. BEGIN FRYING THE GROUND PORK IN THE PAN, BREAKING UP THE PIECES, LETTING IT BROWN THOROUGHLY. THEN TURN DOWN THE HEAT AND STIR IN THE ONIONS.
STIR IN THE CHICKEN BROTH TO THE PAN.
FINALLY, STIR IN THE SAUCE THAT WAS PREPARED WITH THE RED PEPPERS AND BASIL. LET THE SAUCE SIMMER UNTIL THICKENED.
SERVE YOUR THAI BASIL PORK OVER WHITE RICE OR COOKED RICE NOODLES. FEEL FREE TO ADD YOUR FAVORITE VEGGIES TO THE MIX. TRY MUSHROOMS, MATCHSTICK CARROTS, BOY CHOY OR BROCCOLI.
