Frozen Vegetable Stir-Fry
This stir fry with frozen veggies makes a very quick and tasty vegetable side dish that's ready to serve in 10 minutes. Soy sauce and peanut butter add a nice Thai-style flavor.
Thai Spicy Basil Chicken Fried Rice
This Thai basil fried rice is a staple of Thai cooking and a great use for leftover rice. Adjust the spices to your tastes. I get Thai basil from a local Asian market. It has a different flavor than regular basil and makes all the difference in this recipe. It is fast and fairly easy to make but requires constant stirring.
Air Fryer Fried Okra
Fried okra made in the air fryer. Super easy to do with a cornmeal coating to make them golden brown and crunchy on the outside. Delicious with a Sriracha mayo dip, ketchup, or ranch.
