Basil

The Basil stir-fry lets our Thai side shine. We sauté garlic, fresh chili, bell pepper, and onion with fragrant Thai basil until the pan smells incredible, then toss everything with your choice of protein. The sauce lands somewhere between savory and slightly spicy, with the basil giving it a fresh, peppery lift. Served over rice, it's a lively plate that still feels comforting, and it's one of our best picks if you enjoy bolder flavors at home or here in Punta Gorda.
