Recipe makes for 6 Servings

1 1/2 lb chicken thighs

1 tbsp fish sauce

salt and pepper

2 lemongrass stalks, trimmed and finely chopped

2 scallions, trimmed and finely chopped

3 tbsp vegetable oil

1 cup water

2 fresh red chilies, seeded and sliced

1 tsp crumbled palm or brown sugar


Directions:


Cut the chicken portions in half, through the bone. Use a sharp skewer to prick chicken, to allow seasonings to penetrate. Place in a dish and pour on fish sauce, sprinkle on seasonings and leave for 15 minutes.

In a large frying pan or wok, heat oil and brown chicken evenly. Stir in the lemongrass, onions and water. Cover and cook until the chicken is almost tender, about 15 minutes, turning several times.


Add chilies and sugar and cook a further 5-7 minutes. The liquid should evaporate, leaving chicken free of sauce. Serve over rice.
