Add chicken and cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Add water. Cover and cook until chicken feels springy when pressed, from 4 to 5 more minutes. Remove chicken to a plate. If sauce is too thin, increase heat to high and boil, uncovered and stirring constantly, until thickened, from 1 to 2 minutes. Pour sauce over chicken. Serve with a dollop of yogurt, if you like, and rice.
