Grilled Lemongrass Chicken

I just want to smell the sweet-smelling aroma of lemongrass in this simple and easy-to-make dish. H said it smells good. Taste good too because H ate most of it. Well, I will see if there are better recipes around as I still have another 3 stalks of lemongrass.

Ingredients

6 pcs of chicken thighs
1 stalk of lemongrass (cut into 1.5inch in length and smashed)
3 tbsp of maple syrup
3 tbsp of dark soya sauce
3 tbsp of light soya sauce
2 tbsp of oyster sauce

Method

1. combine all the above ingredients and marinate for a couple of hours

2. grill the chicken thighs in a bread-toaster or oven for 30mins (turn over the chicken thighs after 15mins)

3. remove the chicken thighs and transfer to a plate.

4. pour the excess marinade and juice from grilling the chicken into a pan and bring to boil to reduce the quantity (cornstarch mixture may be added to thicken the sauce)

5. remove the sauce from the heat and pour it over the chicken thighs and serve.
