3 T chicken stock or water
1/2 C roasted, unsalted cashews
1 T lemon grass, chopped

Stir-fry the chilis until evenly cooked but not scorched. Set aside.
Stir-fry garlic until golden. Add chicken, sugar, and sauces and stir-fry until chicken is golden. Lower heat, add the stock. Cook for a few more minutes.
