Steps:
- 1. For the marinade, mix together the fish sauce and brown sugar, add chicken and let marinate for about 1 hour, rotating chicken pieces about halfway through (for even marinating).
- 2. In the meantime, in a small bowl make the sauce by combining brown sugar, water, rice vinegar, fish sauce and stir until smooth and sugar is dissolved. Stir in the ginger, garlic and shallots; set aside.
- 3. Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add chicken (discard marinade) and sear for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and let chicken cook 20 minutes, turning chicken often for even browning. Then add 1/4 of the sauce to skillet and turn chicken to coat with sauce. The sauce will thicken and the chicken will begin to caramelize after a few minutes. Pour the rest of the sauce into the skillet and continue to cook until sauce is a thick consistency and chicken is cooked thoroughly, about 5 or 10 more minutes. Turn off the heat. Add chiles and green onions and let cook a minute, or just enough to heat the chilies.
- 4. Transfer chicken and caramelized sauce to a serving platter. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and cilantro on top, if desired. Serve immediately.
