In a small saucepan, combine the rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let rest covered for 5 minutes.
While the rice cooks, toss the chicken pieces in a bowl with the minced garlic, grated ginger, and soy sauce.
Heat half the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook for 3 minutes, flip, and cook for 3 minutes more until golden and opaque. Transfer the chicken to a plate. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Add the remaining oil to the same skillet. Add the green beans and a splash of water. Sauté for 5 to 6 minutes until tender-crisp. Stir the chicken back in for 1 minute to warm through.
