Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup fish sauce
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon dry sherry
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon dark soy sauce or 1 teaspoon regular soy sauce
1 teaspoon slivered ginger
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 small fresh Thai chiles or 2 small dried Thai chiles, broken in half
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 large shallot, sliced
1 3/4 lbs skinless boneless dark chicken meat, cut into bite size pieces
