Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the fish sauce, sugar, minced lemongrass, soy sauce, garlic, shallot, and oil. Mix together. Add in the turkey breasts and coat each side with the marinade.
- Cover with plastic wrap and place into the fridge for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Preheat grill to 200°C/392°F. Place marinated turkey breast onto the grill.
- Cook for 5 minutes and carefully flip, cooking for another 5-6 minutes. Remove from grill and place onto a plate.
- Cover the cooked turkey breasts with aluminum foil and let them rest for 10 minutes.
- Assemble the banh mi sandwiches by spreading some butter on the bottom of the baguette and mayonnaise on the top half.
- Add the grilled turkey breast, and top with do chua (pickled daikon and carrot), some cucumber, cilantro, and jalapeno (if you like it a little spicy).
- Enjoy immediately. Grilled Lemongrass Turkey Banh Mi sandwiches may be tightly wrapped and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Another option is to keep the grilled lemongrass turkey and vegetables separately and assemble prior to eating.
