Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 chicken thighs
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon garlic (minced)
2 tablespoons ginger (grated)
2 sticks lemongrass (white part only very finely chopped)
2 spring onions (finely chopped green and white)
3 chilies (red chopped or enough to give a good bite)
1 tablespoon palm sugar (or brown)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 lime (cut into wedges to serve)
coriander (cilantro leaves to serve)

Steps:

  • Trim any excess fat from the thigh section and cut through the thick parts to allow the marinade to pentrate more.
  • Combine ingredients down to and including the vegetable oil and add the chicken and leave to marinate for 10 minutes.
  • Then over high heat, barbecue the chicken, turning once and basting with any remaining marinade during that time.
  • Serve with crisp salad leaves, a sambal, the lime wedges and garnish with the coriander leaves and steamed rice is also good.
