Bright & Zesty Grilled Lemongrass Chicken
- 2 sprigs fresh lemongrass
- 2 pieces chicken breast or thighs
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons palm or brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon coriander stalks, chopped
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced shallots
- 1.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- Chop up your lemon grass, shallots, garlic, and coriander stalks. Sprinkle with a small dash of salt to help release liquid and keep chopping away until you've got a nice little paste.
- Mix with the oil, dried coriander, sugar, fish sauce, and another small touch of salt - fish sauce is extremely salty on its own so don't be liberal with the amount of salt you add. Pound and mix until you've got a nice, mushy mixture
- Coat and marinade the chicken for at least 20-30 minutes. Longer the better.
- Grill for 3-5 minutes per side, depending on how thick your piece of chicken is.
- Dig in!
