In the same pan, over medium heat, add garlic, onions and ginger, cook until they are softened and slightly colored (add more oil if you need to). Add green beans and cook bean until beans turn bright green (about 5 minutes). Add remaining ingredients, stir to dissolve sugar and when sauce appears to be thickening, add chicken to heat through. Taste and correct seasonings. Serve immediately over rice. (Sambal is hot, so each person add their own if desired.)
