Preparation
- Put the rice in a Chinese clay pot or a heavy medium-size saucepan. Pour in enough water to cover the rice by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and cook until most of the water has evaporated, about 15 minutes. Reduce heat to very low and cover tightly.
- Combine the chicken with the light soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of the dark soy sauce, the rice wine, salt, sesame oil and cornstarch.
- Heat a wok or skillet until it is hot. Add the peanut oil and the ginger and stir-fry for 10 seconds. Add the chicken and stir-fry for two minutes. Pour the mixture on top of the rice, cover and continue to cook over very low heat for 10 minutes.
- Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of dark soy sauce over the chicken, sprinkle with scallions and serve.
