  1. Made it a couple of days ago, LOVED IT, not a fan of leftovers, but next day had for lunch, fantastic. Husband and I are making again tonight, putting it on southwest style salad. This would be great on chicken or shrimp as well.

  2. Cant wait to try this!! Do you think red curry paste would work as a substitute to thai chili paste? Or better to use hot sauce?

      Yep, I have! And it’s delish! 🙂 But the chicken bites do take just a bit longer to cook through.

      Hi!

      You can use hot sauce, or sriracha. It won’t be as thick as chili paste, but it works.

      Sure! It might take a minute longer to cook through since regular skillets don’t retain heat quite like cast iron skillets, but it’s fine. Also, just make sure to wait until the oil is hot enough before adding in the steak bites. You want that sizzle. 🙂

  3. This is delicious! It would be great to make and freeze it. Sitting down and eating some right now.

      You can use any as long as it’s chili paste. I use “Thai Kitchen” or “Sambal Oelek”
