Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/4 cups water
3/4 cup raw jasmine rice
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup chicken broth
2 tbsp fish sauce
2 chicken breast halves, boneless, skinless seasoned with salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
1 tbsp shallot, minced

1 tsp jalapeno, seeded, minced
1/4 cup scallion , bias-sliced
2 tbsp fresh mint leaves , torn
