Here's an easy, quite tasty weeknight meal. I substituted whole wheat orzo for the rice.

Thai Chicken with Basil

1 tsp. oil
1 1/4 cups chopped shiitake mushrooms
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1/8 tsp. hot red pepper flakes
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut in thin strips
2 tsp. grated lime zest
3 1/2 Tbsp. oyster sauce
1/2 cup chopped basil

To frypan, add chicken and cook about 3 minutes or until fork can be inserted with ease. Return mushroom mixture to pan; add lime zest, oyster sauce and basil and heat through, about 3 minutes more. Place cooked rice on serving platter, top with chicken mixture and garnish with basil leaves.
