Inspired by my favourite Thai dish, Pad Kra Pao, this is as good as meal prep gets. Ready in under 30 minutes and the flavour gets better the longer you leave it. Plus there’s barely any chopping (only the broccoli, but that’s easy.

    This was delicious, but a little salty despite adding no extra salt and using low-sodium chicken stock. I think maybe I'll use 1 less tbs of oyster sauce and fish sauce to see if that helps. Otherwise it's delicious and a great meal prep lunch!

    So good. Quick and easy. Sauce couldn't be simpler and pack a big punch. Will be making again.

    Couldn’t find chicken mince so used pork instead. Found the Thai basil was a little too much of an aniseed flavour so would switch for normal basil next time. Easy and fairly quick mid-week dinner we all enjoyed.

    Hi Jess! You defo can. I would omit the basil and add it through once you've defrosted the dish.

    Wonderful flavour in the sauce, and very easy to make. I will add this to the rotation.

    This was OK, a bit too saucy for me and quite salty. Did come together quickly and easily though but don't think I will make again.

    Hard to buy chicken mince where I live in France, so I just chopped two chicken breasts up finely. Added some edamame beans, because I like them. Really tasty and easy dish to make.

    So easy to make and tasty. Would like to try this again with chicken thighs instead, bet that would be even better

    Made with pork mince and no Thai basil and was still awesome! Truly the max flavour and interest with the least effort and mainly cupboard ingredients

    Love the idea of meal prepping this but we don’t have a microwave :( would it reheat okay in a pan?

    I would guess fine, just make the rice fresh each time so it doesn't dry out. I'm planning on making this tonight and freezing half the meat
