Bring 2 1⁄2 cups water and pinch of salt to boil. Add rice, cover and simmer 15-20 minutes. Whisk together garlic, ginger, soy, jam and 1 T of water in a small bowl.
Heat a drizzle of oil in Wok or large pan over medium-high heat. Season chicken strips with salt and pepper. Add to pan and toss until nearly cooked, 3-4 minutes. Remove meat and set aside.
