Three Cup Chicken - Small Batch
The name "Three Cup Chicken" comes from the original full size recipe that uses one cup of each - rice wine, sesame oil, and soy sauce - thus "Three Cup". This is a smaller version.
1⁄3 cup sesame oil
7 garlic cloves, minced
5 slices thin fresh ginger
2 serrano peppers, seeded and halved
2 lbs. chicken breasts or 2 lbs. chicken thigh pieces, cut up into bite-size pieces
1⁄3 cup soy sauce
1⁄3 cup rice wine
3 tablespoons honey
2 cups Thai basil
1 cup of 1-inch sections scallion
Heat up the sesame oil in a wok or a large skillet on high heat.
Add garlic, ginger and serrano peppers, stir fry until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add the chicken pieces and cook until it's white in color, about 5 minutes.
Stir together the soy sauce, rice wine and sugar in a bowl, pour over chicken.
Bring to a boil, then turn down the heat to low.
Let cook, uncovered, until sauce thickens, about 30 minutes.
Turn heat back up to high and add basil and scallions, cook for another 2 minutes.
Serve over steamed rice.
