Steps:
- Combine the lime juice, fish sauce, maple syrup, oil, soy sauce, black pepper, garlic, lemongrass and shallot in a blender or food processor. Puree until smooth.
- Combine the chicken and marinade in a large bowl. Toss until the chicken is evenly coated. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. (If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15 minutes before using.) Thread the chicken evenly onto the skewers.
- Once the grill is hot, place the chicken kabobs evenly on the grill. Cook for 10-14 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (no longer pink on the inside).
- Transfer the kabobs to a clean plate, and loosely tent with aluminum foil. Let the chicken rest for at least 5-10 minutes.
- Then serve warm while the chicken is hot and juicy, sprinkled with an extra squeeze of fresh lime juice (plus some thinly-sliced green onions) if desired. Or, refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

Steps:
- If you are using fresh lemon grass, discard the outer leaves and upper half of the stalk. Cut into thin slices and chop fine. If you are using dried lemon grass, soak in warm water for 1 hour, then drain and chop fine. Place the lemon grass, garlic, shallots, chilies, sugar, salt, fish sauce and 2 tablespoons water in a blender and blend to a paste.
- Rinse the chicken well and pat dry. Carefully loosen the skin on the breast and legs, pushing your fingers between the skin and meat to form a pocket. Rub half of the lemon grass paste over the meat under the skin. Rub the remaining paste over the skin and inside the cavity. Tuck the wings underneath; tie the legs with twine. Let stand for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees and continue roasting for 1 1/4 hours, basting the chicken with the vegetable oil and the pan juices. The chicken is done when it registers 180 to 185 degrees on an instant-reading meat thermometer. Let the chicken stand for 10 minutes. Serve with white rice and nuoc cham dipping sauce (see recipe).
