GRILLED THAI CHICKEN BREASTS WITH HERB-LEMONGRASS CRUST



Grilled Thai Chicken Breasts With Herb-Lemongrass Crust image

Before chopping the lemongrass, be sure to cut off the spiky green top and enough of the bottom to eliminate the woody core. Peel off a few of the outer layers until you're left with just the tender heart of the stalk. Though these breasts are great served hot off the grill, they're also fine served cold in the coming days, either plain or sliced atop a salad. From Fine Cooking. Marinate time not included.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups chopped fresh cilantro, divided (leaves and tender stems)
3/4 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup finely chopped lemongrass (from about 2 stalks)
12 fresh basil leaves, minced
3 thai bird chiles, 2 jalapenos or 2 medium serranos, stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper
3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
12 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (5 to 5-1/2 lb.)
2 limes, cut into wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Combine 1-1/4 cups of the cilantro with the coconut milk, lemongrass, basil, chiles, garlic, salt, brown sugar, pepper, and coriander in a food processor or blender and purée until smooth.
  • Arrange the chicken breasts in a nonreactive baking dish or other container large enough to accommodate them in a snug single layer. Pour the marinade over the breasts and turn to coat them well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
  • Heat a gas grill to medium high or prepare a medium-hot charcoal fire. Grill the chicken (covered on a gas grill) until it has good grill marks on the first side, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the chicken (covering the grill) and continue to cook until firm to the touch and completely cooked through (check by making a slice into one of the thicker breasts), 5 to 6 more minutes.
  • Transfer to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup cilantro and serve with the lime wedges.

THAI GRILLED CHICKEN (GAI YANG)



Thai Grilled Chicken (Gai Yang) image

The marinade for this chicken is true to the authentic Thai grilled chicken (Gai Yang). Traditional Gai Yang is served with a dipping sauce but I find chicken thighs so juicy that it doesn't need it. Instead, I incorporate the flavour into the Marinade. Traditionally this is cooked over charcoal which gives it a wonderful smokey flavour. But it really is fantastic even cooked on the stove or in the oven, though my preference is to cook it on the outdoor grill. The key ingredients are the lemongrass and fish sauce - don't omit or substitute these!

Time 16m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 lb / 1 kg chicken thigh fillets ((skinless, boneless) (Note 1))
1 large lemongrass stalk (, white part only very finely chopped (about 2 tbsp) (Note 2))
6 cloves garlic (, minced)
2 tbsp lime juice
2 tsp finely chopped red chili ((optional but recommended))
3 tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine (, sherry or sake (Japanese cooking wine) (Note 4))
1 tsp sesame oil ((optional))
3 tbsp brown sugar or palm sugar
2 tbsp honey ((or 1 tbsp brown sugar))
1/2 tbsp black pepper ((adjust to taste - this adds spiciness))
Lime wedges
Red chili (, finely sliced (optional))
Cilantro / coriander leaves ((optional))

Steps:

  • Place Marinade ingredients in a large ziplock bag. Massage to mix.
  • Add the chicken into the ziplock bag and massage to spread the marinade over all the chicken. Marinate for a minimum of 3 hours, preferably overnight (up to 24 hours).
  • Remove chicken from the Marinade and discard the Marinade (unless baking in the oven - refer Note 3).
  • Heat the outdoor grill on medium high. Or heat 1/2 tbsp oil in a non stick pan over medium high heat on the stove.
  • Cook the chicken until golden brown - around 3 minutes each side.
  • Rest for a few minutes before serving with lime wedges on the side, and garnished with fresh chilies and cilantro, if using.

This recipe actually calls for Breasts, but I used thighs and they were moist and lucious! Goes well with steamed Basamati Rice.
