1 cup sesame oil
1 cup rice wine
2 cloves garlic

Cut chicken into bite sized pieces, about 1 inch by 1 inch. Season chicken with salt and pepper and set aside.

In a medium bowl combine soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice wine and set aside.

Roughly chop garlic. Slice chilies if using. Peel ginger and cut into large slices.

Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Fry garlic for 1 minute then remove with a slotted spoon and discard. Add chicken and fry for about 2 minutes until browned on all sides. Add liquid mixture along with optional chilies and ginger slices. Simmer for about five minutes until liquid has reduced.
