Servings: persons

4 yellow or red jalapeno or Serrano peppers
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3/4 pound chicken breasts or tenderloins, cut against the grain into bite-size pieces
2 large cloves garlic, peeled and minced (about 1 tablespoon)
1 tablespoon fish sauce (more or less to taste)
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1/4 cup homemade or store-bought low-sodium chicken stock
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/3 pound long beans or green beans, trimmed and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces
4 to 5 fresh
lime leaves, hand-torn into pieces and lightly bruised

1
Cut yellow chilies crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces and pound them in a mortar until they're broken up into small chunks, about 1/4-inch in size; set aside. (If you don't have a mortar, place cut-up chilies in a plastic zipper bag, seal bag well and get rid of trapped air, wrap bag with a kitchen towel, then pound on it with a meat tenderizer or something heavy.)
2
Heat oil in a 10- or 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, minced garlic, fish sauce, oyster sauce, chicken stock, and sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is almost cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add long beans, crushed chilies, and kaffir lime leaves. Continue to stir-fry until chicken is cooked through and long beans are still crisp and retain their green color, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Season to taste with more fish sauce if desired. Transfer to a serving platter and serve with steamed rice.
