Cook the rice according to package instructions.
Heat a wok over high heat with a splash of oil. Sauté minced garlic and chilies until fragrant.
Add ground chicken and stir-fry until browned and cooked through.
Stir in fish sauce, soy sauce, and sugar, mixing well to coat the chicken.
Remove from heat and fold in the Thai basil leaves until wilted.
In a separate pan, fry the eggs until the edges are crispy and the yolks are cooked to preference.
Divide the cooked rice into four bowls, top with the chicken mixture, and place a fried egg on each.
