Thai Stir-Fry Chicken Ginger

1 1/2 cups low sodium chicken broth

3/4 cup coconut milk

5 ounces grated fresh ginger - divided use

1 cup uncooked jasmine rice

2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons fish sauce
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 cup warm water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups yellow onion vertical strips
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in 2-inch strips
1/2 teaspoon white pepper

1. In saucepan, place broth, coconut milk and 1 teaspoon ginger. Add jasmine rice and bring to a boil over high temperature. Stir, reduce heat to low, cover and cook 20 minutes. Turn off heat and let sit 10 minutes without removing cover.
