Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Herbs, Chilies
     Yield: 4 Servings

     3 tb Sesame oil
     1    Ginger piece (3"); peeled
          - in 12 coins
    12 cl Garlic; peeled
     4    Whole scallions; trimmed, in
          - 1" pieces

     1 ts Red-pepper flakes
     2 lb Chicken thighs; in bite-size

   1/2 c  Rice wine
   1/4 c  Light soy sauce

 Heat a wok over high heat and add 2 tb sesame oil. When the oil
 shimmers, add the ginger, garlic, scallions, and peppers, and cook
 until fragrant, approximately 2 minutes.

 Scrape the aromatics to the sides of the wok, add remaining oil and
 allow to heat through. Add the chicken, and cook, stirring
 occasionally, until it is browned and crisping at the edges,
 approximately 5 to 7 minutes.

 Add sugar and stir to combine, then add the rice wine and soy
 sauce, and bring just to a boil. Lower the heat, then simmer until
 the sauce has reduced and started to thicken, approximately
 15 minutes.

 Turn off the heat, add the basil and stir to combine. Serve with
 white rice.
