Lemongrass Chicken Recipe
Report
Savory and citrusy with just a hint of sweetness, this lemongrass chicken is a pure delight. Grilled chicken thighs are super tender and the perfect thing to dip in a semi-spicy sriracha mayo! Yum-my!

Instructions
- Place the oil, vinegar, soy sauce, lemongrass, garlic, ginger, and lime juice into a blender and blend on high until smooth.
- Place the chicken thighs in a shallow container (like a baking dish) and pour the marinade over the top. Mix the chicken thighs around well, so each piece is coated in the marinade. Let the chicken marinate for 1-2 hours.
- While the chicken is marinating, make the sriracha mayo. Combine the mayonnaise, sriracha, and sea salt in a small bowl and mix well. Refrigerate until you use it.
- Preheat your bbq or grill pan to medium-high. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.
- Place the chicken on the bbq and grill it for 6-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Remove the chicken from the grill, top with garnishes, and serve the sriracha mayo on the side.
