    SERVE WITH: Steamed jasmine rice NOTES: Because fish sauces vary in their saltiness, I advise adding the fish sauce to taste.

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
    • About 1/4 cup fish sauce (nam pla)
    • 1/4 cup water
    • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
    • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
    • 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
    • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
    • 2 fresh Thai chiles, halved, or dried red chiles
    • 1 tablespoon canola oil
    • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
    • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1- inch pieces
    • 4 cilantro sprigs

    Directions

    1. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, fish sauce, water, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, pepper and chiles.
    2. Heat the oil in a large deep skillet. Add the shallot and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the fish sauce mixture and the chicken and simmer over high heat until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
    3. Transfer to a serving bowl, garnish with the cilantro and serve.
