Before you begin, first and most important - tune into your favorite music on Pandora or put your favorite CD on. I love to listen to Girl From Ipenema and have a glass of chardonnay when I'm cooking :)
Stir fry chicken with ginger, which is also called "Cha Kney Sach-Mon" is a traditional and favorite dish of Cambodia. It's flavor consists of sweet, salty, and spice from the ginger. You will need about 25 minutes to cook up this amazingly flavorful dish.
Let's begin!
You will need:
Ingredients4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 whole fresh ginger, sliced in strips adjust amount to your liking
2 stalk green onion, sliced in strips
4 chicken thighs, cut into bite-size pieces
Olive oil
Seasoning
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
3 tablespoons chicken stock or water
one teaspoon of chicken bouillon
I usually serve this dish with rice (brown rice as a healthier alternative). Start cooking your rice (not included in this recipe, so calculate it on your own).
Directions
Cut the scallions and ginger. Slice the ginger thinly, then cut them into fine strips.
Because fresh ginger is very potent and spicy, you can make the flavor more mild by soaking it in water for 10 minutes.

Heat up a large pan or wok on medium-high and add the olive oil. When it's hot, add the ginger and the garlic and stir until the garlic is a golden brown. Add chicken and stir well. Add in the sugar and stir. Add in the salt and stir. Add the bouillion and stir. Add in the oyster sauce and stir. Add in the fish sauce and stir. Once all the ingredients are mixed in together, cover the pan or wok with a lid and let the chicken cook for a few minutes.
Once the chicken is cooked, give it a quick stir and add in the onions. Break the onions apart and give it a good stir a few times. Finished! Serve with Jasmine rice.
Number of Servings: 6
Final product! Serve with rice and pair with your favorite wine.
