Step 1

Combine the sauce ingredients in a bowl, stirring until the cornstarch and brown sugar are dissolved, and set aside.

Step 2

Sprinkle the cut up chicken with the cornstarch and toss to coat.

Step 3

Heat a wok or heavy frying pan over high heat. Once hot, add the oil.

Step 4

Add the chicken and fry until cooked through, about one minute. Add the garlic and ginger and fry for another 30 seconds.

Step 5

Add the sauce and white parts of the green onions and simmer until thickened, about a minute. Add the remaining green onions, stir to coat and remove from heat (the green onions should remain a little crispy).

Step 6

Serve immediately with steamed rice.
