Heat 1 tablespoon oil in 10-inch skillet over high heat until just beginning to smoke. | 5. Add chicken and cook without stirring for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, allowing chicken to brown on one side; stir and cook 1 to 1 1/2 minutes more, until no longer pink; stir peanuts and chiles into chicken and continue cooking until peanuts have darkened slightly, 30 to 40 seconds longer. | 6. Transfer chicken, peanuts, and chiles to bowl; set aside. | 7. Return skillet to burner and reheat briefly, 15 to 30 seconds. | 8.

Stir broth mixture to recombine, then add to skillet along with reserved chicken, peanuts, and chiles; cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits on bottom of pan, until sauce has thickened to syrupy consistency, about 15 to 20 seconds. | 10. Stir in scallions and serve. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
