  1. Cook's Note: Galangal can be found at Asian markets; however, you may substitute an equal amount of fresh ginger if you cannot find it fresh.

  2. Toast the jasmine rice until light golden brown in a small saute pan over medium heat, for 6 to 8 minutes. Cool completely and grind in a spice grinder or mortar and pestle until finely ground. Set aside.

  3. Heat the chicken stock in a wok or large saute pan over medium heat. Once the stock is steaming but just below a simmer , add the chicken. Sprinkle with the kosher salt and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the chicken is just cooked through and no longer pink, about 8 minutes. The chicken will appear pale even when cooked through. Turn off the heat, add the garlic, shallots , galangal and lemongrass and stir to combine.

  4. Combine the lime juice, fish sauce , cilantro, mint, scallions and chiles in a large bowl. Add the chicken mixture and toasted rice and stir to combine. Serve with any or all of the suggested accompaniments.
