Ingredients

2 cups jasmine rice
3 cups water
2 tbsp vegetable oil
500 g skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into thin strips
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 green onions, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 large red bell pepper, sliced
3/4 cup mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup fresh ginger, matchstick-cut
1 tbsp Asian fish sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp white sugar
1/2 tsp Thai red chile paste
2 tbsp chicken broth
salt, ground black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp fresh cilantro leaves

Directions

1

In a saucepan, combine water and rice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until the rice is tender and water has been absorbed, about 20-25 minutes.

2

Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high fire. Add chicken and garlic; cook for 2 minutes. Insert the green onions, bell pepper, mushrooms, ginger, fish sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and chili paste. Stir until the chicken is no longer pink and vegetables are nearly tender, about 3 minutes.

3

In a small bowl, mix broth with salt, black pepper, and red chile paste. Whisk well; pour into the wok.

4

Serve the stir-fry over rice and garnish with cilantro leaves.
