  1. In a wok or a large sauté pan, sauté the garlic-chili paste in a little vegetable oil over medium-high heat until the garlic turns golden.
  2. Add chicken/tofu and toss until they’re no longer in big clumps. Add the mixed sauce and continue tossing until the chicken is cooked.
  3. Stir in the holy/sweet basil for one min and turn off the heat. Add a splash of water to create the sauce. Turn off the heat after one min. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
