Roasted Lemongrass Chicken

材料

800gm chicken pieces(I used 5 drumsticks, and 2 thighs)

1 heaped tsp salt

2 heaped Tbsp sugar

2 lemongrass (4 inches from the base)

30gm shallots

1 inch ginger

1 tsp turmeric powder

2 Tbsp coconut milk

1 Tbsp butter

1 Tbsp oil

手順

1. Score few slits on chicken pieces.

2. Marinate chicken pieces with salt, sugar and turmeric.

3. Blend lemongrass, shallots and ginger to a paste. Mix with coconut milk.

4. Put (3) onto marinated chicken and rub it onto chicken pieces and into the slits or whatever crevaces.

5. Marinate for 1-2 hours. Don't marinate too long, the ginger will soften the chicken too much.

6. Rub oil and butter onto chicken before baking. Place chicken pieces onto a baking tray.

7. Bake in preheated oven at 200C for 30-40 minutes or until golden.
