Cooking Steps

1

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.

2

Heat the cooking oil in a pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and stir-fry until cooked through and slightly browned. This should take about 8-10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

3

Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook until fragrant and lightly golden, about 1 minute. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

4

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, fish sauce, and sugar until the sugar is dissolved.

5

Return the chicken to the pan. Pour the sauce over the chicken and garlic. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Simmer for about 2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Garnish with chopped green onions.

Tips

For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a small diced chili pepper along with the garlic.

If the sauce is too thick, add a tablespoon of water to thin it out.

Serve this chicken with garlic sauce over rice or noodles.

Freshly ground black pepper enhances the flavor of the dish.
