Evil jungle prince is a Thai-style dish originating in Hawaiʻi.
Evil jungle prince with chicken was developed in 1977 by Laotian American Keo Sananikone for his Mekong restaurant in Honolulu.[1][3] Later versions by Sananikone included other proteins.[5][3] Sananikone also created the evil princess, but that is a cocktail and not a related dish.[1]
The dish has been replicated in other restaurants, as far away as Vermont.[6]
Name
The 'evil' part of the name comes from the hot chili peppers used in the dish.[4] The 'jungle' part of the name has been linked to the dish's similarity to kaeng pa, or jungle curry, although the latter typically does not contain coconut milk.[7]
Other names for the dish include loving jungle princess.[8]
