VIETNAMESE NOODLES WITH LEMONGRASS CHICKEN



Vietnamese Noodles with Lemongrass Chicken image

Recipe video above. This Vietnamese lemongrass marinade is exceptional - you'll absolutely love it! This is one of my siganture recipes - it's as delicious as it is healthy, ideal for making ahead, for midweek meals and a cheap (impressive) meal idea for large groups. DON'T BE DAUNTED by the list of ingredients - the ingredients for the marinade and sauce are largely the same!

Categories     Noodles

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 25

600 - 800g / 1.2 - 1.6lb chicken thigh fillets (, skinless and boneless or breast (or pork, beef or any seafood))
1 stalk lemongrass (, white part only, bruised them sliced into pieces easy to pick out later (Note 1))
2 garlic cloves (, finely chopped or minced)
2 tbsp lime juice
2 tbsp fish sauce ((Note 2))
1 tbsp soy sauce ((all purpose or light, NOT dark soy))
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 cup fish sauce ((Note 3))
4 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp white sugar
1/2 cup water
2 garlic cloves (, finely chopped)
1 red birds eye chilli (, finely chopped (Note 4))
3 tbsp lime juice
1/2 tbsp oil
200 g / 7 oz vermicelli noodles (, dried)
2 carrots (, julienned)
2 cucumbers (, julienned (optional: remove seeds))
5 cups iceberg lettuce (, finely sliced)
3 cups bean sprouts
Handful of mint leaves
Handful of cilantro/coriander
Sliced red chilli ((for garnish - optional))
Lime wedges ((to serve - optional but recommended))

Steps:

  • Combine Chicken and Marinade ingredients and set aside for at least 1 hour, up to 24 hours. (Note 4)
  • Heat 1/2 tbsp oil in a fry pan over medium heat (or heat the BBQ). Remove chicken from marinade, shaking off large bits of lemongrass (small bits should fall off during cooking).
  • Place chicken in the pan and cook each side until dark golden brown and chicken is just cooked through - about 6 to 8 minutes in total.
  • Remove from pan, shaking off any remaining bits of visible lemongrass and set aside to rest for 5 minutes. Then slice into thin pieces.
  • Combine the Nuoc Cham ingredients and mix well to dissolve the sugar. Adjust to your taste (spiciness, lime, sweetness) and set aside for at least 20 minutes.
  • Soak the vermicelli noodles in hot water for 3 minutes (or according to packet instructions), then drain and rinse under cold water to stop the noodles from sticking together.
  • Individual servings: Place noodles in bowl. Top with vegetables and herbs, and sliced chicken pieces. Drizzle with a few tablespoons of Nuoc Cham Sauce (be generous, ~ 4 tbsp per serving) and serve with lime wedges.
  • DIY (my preferred way): Place chicken, vegetables, herbs, noodles and sauce in separate bowls / piled on platters. Then let everyone make their own bowls!

VIETNAMESE LEMONGRASS CHICKEN



Vietnamese Lemongrass Chicken image

This Vietnamese Lemongrass Chicken recipe is made with the best citrusy lemongrass marinade, and can be grilled, baked or sautéed.

Provided by Ali

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup lime juice, plus extra lime wedges for serving
3 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons maple syrup (or brown sugar)
2 tablespoons avocado oil (or any neutral-flavored oil)
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
4 small garlic cloves
2 stalks lemongrass, tender white parts only, roughly chopped (see below)
1 medium shallot, peeled and halved (or half of a small red onion)
2 pounds boneless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces

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.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons white sugar

3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 jalapeno peppers, sliced

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, fish sauce, and black pepper in a shallow plate and turn chicken in the marinade. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Combine water, fish sauce, sugar, and rice vinegar in a bowl. Set caramel sauce aside.
  • Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and pan-fry chicken, skin-side up, until bottoms turn slightly crispy and brown, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook until skin is slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and transfer to a plate.
  • Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet and cook garlic for 30 seconds. Return chicken to the skillet and add caramel sauce. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear. Caramel sauce should be reduced and turn amber in color. Add jalapenos and cook for 1 more minute.
