In addition to Thai basil chicken, gai pad prik gaeng (ไก่ผัดพริกแกง) or chicken stir fried with chili curry paste and long beans, is one of the most popular Thai $1 meals.

Often the dish includes aromatic kaffir lime leaves which adds a wonderful lemony dimension to the sweet and spicy chili sauce.
