Step 3

To cook: Heat the vegetable oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken all at once (the skillet will be very full; do your best to spread the chicken into a single layer), and cook, stirring every few minutes, until deeply golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the garlic, ginger, and light green scallions and cook, stirring constantly, for about one minute; do not let burn. Add the remaining sauce mixture. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and cook at a gentle boil until the sauce is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cornstarch/water mixture and cook until the sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes. Off the heat, stir in the vinegar and sprinkle with dark green scallions. Serve over rice.
