Lemongrass Chicken Thai Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Street cooking in thailand is kept simple, with a minimal list of ingredients, and yet the food tastes so exquisite. You'll find the same to be true with this easy recipe for thai lemongrass chicken. Don't be fooled by the simplicity of the ingredients-when they are put together, the results are so delicious. This recipe is derived from my adventures talking to street cooks in thailand and watching what they do-the only difference here is that the chicken is baked instead of grilled or stir-fried. I love to make this dish with quarter chicken pieces, but thighs and even chicken breast work well (be sure to leave the skin on for best results). Wonderful with rice or even potatoes if you don't mind a little east-meets-west on your table. Enjoy
