Ingredients:
Chicken breast (cut into bite-size pieces - rinsed and drained ) | 300 gm | |
Thai rice | 1 cup | |
Dried chili, broken | 1 long | |
Garlic, bruised | 2 large cloves | |
Ginger, peeled and sliced into large, thin, thumb-length diagonal slices - do not chop or mince finely | 2 large knobs | |
Onion (Vidalia), chopped into squares | 1 | |
Spring onion, chopped into 2 " lengths | 5 Tbsp | |
Oyster Sauce | 1 Tbsp | |
Light Soy Sauce | 1 Tbsp | |
Dark Soy Sauce | 1-2 tsp | |
Thick Dark Sweet Soy Sauce(Kick Manis) | 1-2 tsp | |
White pepper powder (or Black) | ½ - ¾ tsp | |
Cornflour (mixed in ¾ cup water to make a slurry) | 2 tsp | |
Coriander (Cilantro), chopped | 1 Tbsp | |
Sunflower Oil | 3 Tbsp + 1 Tbsp | |
Eggs | 2 |
Method:
- Once the chicken is prepped, start cooking the rice.
- Set a wok on one burner and a frying pan on the other.
- Add oil to the wok, swirl around well, and bring to heat.
- Add the bruised garlic and stir fry on high heat. Add the dried chilli and fry.
- As soon as they are both fried well and golden, remove from the oil with a slotted spoon.
- Add the thinly sliced ginger and stir fry continuously on high heat till you get the awesome aroma of the ginger and the ginger is slightly crisped around the edges. ( Don’t allow it to go brown).
- Add the onion and toss just till softened a bit – not too long.
- Next, add the drained chicken and toss immediately in the ingredients till the chicken turns white.
- At the same time, separately, add oil to the frying pan for frying eggs, one at a time. Use a ring to get nicely shaped-fried eggs.
- Also, keep tossing the chicken, in the wok till it is tender. It cooks quite quickly since it’s bite-size and we are using a wok.
- Add all the sauces, spring onion, and pepper powder. Toss again. Taste and add salt if needed.
- Stir in the cornflour slurry and add to the chicken. Bring to a simmer. Stir till slightly thickened ( you should have a good amount of gravy).
- Return the fried garlic and dried chili now. Stir through.
- Add the finely chopped coriander leaves.
- Return the fried garlic and chilli now. Stir.
- By this time our first fried egg is ready. Mold the cooked rice using a small bowl. Invert onto 2 serving woks (to be fancy) or regular plates.
- Divide the saucy ginger chicken – pour over the rice!
- Top with the fried egg. Continue to fry the second egg. Top the second plate. Add pepper over the egg, its Pepper Lunch!
- Serve HOT!

Notes:
- How to cook rice in the Microwave – shorts video.
- Chicken breast cooks very quickly. Do not over-cook.
- We keep the ginger sliced into thin large oval coins so that they can be removed if desired. Finely chopping the ginger messes with the texture of the dish.
- Read about the benefits of ginger.
