Vietnamese Lemongrass Chicken and Noodles
Mattman3969
Posts: 10,458
Marinated some skin on boneless thighs in lime juice,fish sauce, soy, garlic, brown sugar, veggie oil and lemongrass.
On the small at 375 direct
Made a Nuoc Cham dressing with fish sauce, soy, lime juice, chopped garlic, sugar,Birdseye chilies and little water.
Served up on a bed of lettuce, vermicelli noodles, cuke and carrot stick and radishes.
Unreal flavors in the chicken after it marinated for 4 hrs and the Nuoc Cham
hit a Unami note that was really good. Lots of vibrant flavors and textures in that bowl.

@botch - we are actually growing our own lemongrass. Pretty easy so far. Just plant and water occasionally. It’s about 6’ tall now.-----------------------------------------analyze adapt overcome2008 -Large BGE. 2013- Small BGE and 2015 - Mini. Henderson, Ky.

@Botch, try an Indian market for lemongrass. Also tons of spices.
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I wouldn’t marinate over 4hrs. That is what I did and I could tell when I took the thighs out that they were getting close to being in too long. Starting to get that “ I’ve been in acid too long” gray look. They weren’t mushy and the cooked texture was good but I was concerned until the first bite.fence0407 said:

Found lemongrass yesterday and just finished all the prep, chicken now in marinade. I’m hungover as all hell, and the amount of fish sauce (LOTS) in the NUOC CHAM dipping sauce intimidated me. Didn’t taste yet - I am trying to stay optimistic

My sauce turned out pale compared to the pic in the P. I think I added a dash of dark soy to adjust. My wife asked if it was OK to drink the sauce. Hope you enjoy-----------------------------------------analyze adapt overcome2008 -Large BGE. 2013- Small BGE and 2015 - Mini. Henderson, Ky.
