Spicy Lemongrass Chicken // Gà Kho Sả ớt
Ingredients:
3 lb Chicken Thighs, cut into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons Cane Sugar
2 teaspoons Chicken Bouillon Powder
2 tablespoons Fish Sauce
1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
1/2 teaspoon White Pepper
3 tablespoons Neutral Oil
2 tablespoons Minced Shallots
1 tablespoon Minced Garlic
2 Vietnamese Caramel Sauce
3 Garlic Cloves, minced
1 Large Shallot, minced
2 Thai Chilies, minced
1 Fresno Chile, minced
2 stalks Lemongrass (mince the thin side and save the thick bulb for simmering)
1/2 cup Coco Rico (Coconut Soda)
Optional Garnish:
Green Onions
Thai Chilies
Instructions:
1. Start by marinating the chicken. In a bowl, combine cane sugar, kosher salt, white pepper, fish sauce, and chicken bouillon powder. Mix well, then add the chicken pieces. Allow the chicken to marinate at room temperature for 45 minutes.
2. While the chicken is marinating, prep and mince all your aromatics. For the lemongrass, mince the thin side and set aside the thick bulb for later.
3. After marinating, heat a pot over medium-low heat. Add 3 tablespoons of neutral oil. When the oil is warm add minced garlic and lemongrass. Cook until fragrant.
4. Combine the rest of the aromatics (minced shallots, Thai chilies, and Fresno Chile) and stir together.
5. Add the Vietnamese caramel sauce and the marinated chicken along with the marinade. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated in the aromatics.
6. Pour in the Coco Rico and add the reserved lemongrass bulbs. Cover the pot with a lid and simmer on low heat for 30 minutes.
7. Remove the lid and give the chicken a stir. Continue to simmer, uncovered, until the liquid reduces to a sauce-like consistency. Adjust the seasoning with more fish sauce if desired.
8. Optional: Garnish with chopped green onions and additional Thai chilies for extra heat.

Making Vietnamese lemongrass chicken
LEMONGRASS CHICKEN⤵️
2 lbs chicken (I used boneless thighs. You can also use bone in thighs or drumsticks)
2 TBSP minced lemon grass
5 cloves minced garlic
2 TBSP fish sauce
2 TBSP soy sauce
2 TBSP honey (or sugar)

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS

1. Marinate your chicken with all of the ingredients listed. Marinate for at least 3 hours of overnight for best results
2. After your chicken has been marinating, you can cook on a skillet, airfryer or grill.
3. If cooking in a skillet: heat up some oil on medium heat. Once hot, add your chicken and cook for 10 minutes (or until your chicken is cooked through), flipping every 2-3 minutes so your chicken doesn’t burn because of honey/ sugar.
4. After your first flip, brush a thin coat of oyster sauce onto your chicken for some added color— this is optional.
5. Serve with rice or vermicelli noodles, veggie of choice. sunny side up egg and fish sauce.

Airfry Lemongrass Chicken Gà Xào Sả Ớt
Gà Xào Sả Ớt (Vietnamese Lemongrass Chicken) is full of bold savory and spicy flavors! Quick and easy to make on a week night to delight your family's palates! Lemongrass has it's own unique flavor and it's hard to describe it using one word. That is because lemongrass has a blend of fragrances all on its own and can taste lemony, minty, and gingery. In addition, the lemongrass will be mixed with a few other ingredients like oyster sauce, garlic and chili to add a complexity to the overall sauce. The best part about making this dish is that it's super easy but tastes like a dish that's been slaved over.
Ughhhhh sorry there's a typo on marinade! Please ignore. Thank you!

I always make lots of sauce in advanced and freeze them into portions so that I can easily marinate meats and chicken at a snap of my fingers. It's even quicker and easier now that I have an airfryer! The airfryer gives the chicken the look of grilled meat, but non of the work! I serve my lemongrass chicken with a side of veggies or a fresh Vietnamese cabbage salad (Gỏi Bắp Cải) and rice. My family of four will consume a large tray of chicken drum sticks! That's a dozen drumsticks!
