Step By Step

Instructions

1
Add the rice to a wok or large skillet over medium heat, and stir continuously for 5-7 minutes until the rice turns light brown. Using a mortar and pestle or spice grinder, grind the rice into a fine powder. Set aside.
2
Place a wok or skillet over high heat. Once the pan starts smoking, add the ground chicken and break up the chicken into finer bits using a spoon. Continue cooking the chicken until it browns, about 6-8 minutes. Then add the fish sauce, sugar, lime juice, and water and stir for another minute.
3
Remove the chicken from the heat and stir in the cilantro, mint, scallions, shallots, chilis, and rice powder.
4
Salt to taste and serve the larb gai in lettuce cups or with sticky rice.
