Zubereitung von Basic Lemongrass Marinade
- Finely mince 4 stalks of lemongrass, 4 cloves of garlic, and 2-3 Thai chilies (adjust to your spice preference).
- In a food processor or blender, process the minced lemongrass, garlic, and chilies into a smooth paste.
- In a bowl, whisk together the lemongrass paste, 1/4 cup fish sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce.
- Add 1 pound of chicken (or other meat) to a zip-top bag or airtight container. Pour marinade over chicken, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
- Marinate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor. (For smaller cuts of chicken, a shorter marinade time is sufficient)
- Grill chicken (or other meat) according to your preferred method. (For chicken, grill 4-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through)
- Save the leftover lemongrass stalks! Steep them in hot water for a refreshing lemongrass tea or use them to add aromatic flavor to soups and stocks.
