The name of the sauce is literally sweet chili sauce. It's like ketchup. It's a type of sauce a lot of different companies make. My favorite is Mae Ploy (there's smaller and cheaper bottles on Amazon then the one in the link).

I'm a white dude and that's how I grew up eating rice. I don't anymore because I don't have as much taste for salt as I did as a kid but that's how my dad makes it still.
If you like Chicken and rice this is a really good thai sauce that goes well with chicken
Instead of using BBQ sauce, try getting a big bottle of sweet chili sauce and making sweet chili ribs! The sauce you'll need is orange like duck sauce, but with flakes of chili in it. Mae Ploy is my favorite brand. Use it just like American BBQ sauce and let it develop a nice glaze.

Usually around $4 a bottle at the local Asian mart.
Is this like an off-brand Mae Ploy?
planning on making these this week, and I'll probably use some Mae Ploy which you can usually find at the grocery store.

also butter, salt and cracked black pepper when you're browning the meat. and really that's it :)
my dad loves this i tried to send him a bottle one day but i wasn't allowed to post it, I think you may even get it in your local supermarket as my Dad can get it at home now and yes I think it's just sweet chilli sauce, we call it chicken sauce in our house :)
