    INGREDIENTS
    2 cups roasted peanuts (if peanuts are not roasted, see below)
    5 garlic cloves, minced
    1 1/2 inches ginger root, minced
    3 scallions, chopped
    4-5 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cubed
    3/4 cup soybean paste, sweetened (found in Asian markets)

    DIRECTION
    Fry garlic & ginger on medium - high heat until beginning to
    brown. Add green onion and let fry for half a minute.
    Add chicken cubes and turn up the heat to high, stir - frying
    until opaque.
    Turn heat back down to medium. Toss in peanuts and soybean paste, stirring to coat.
    sprinkle sugar over the mixture and stir for a minute or two longer. Serve with rice.

    (If your peanuts are not roasted, put them in an oven preheated at 350 for 15 - 20 minutes. Stir once before done.
    Take them out before completely roasted because they continue to cook once out of the oven.)
