directions

  • Cut approx 3cm (1.2in) from the lemongrass (not the hard white part, the other end). Finely chop.
  • Combine chopped lemongrass, peanut oil, lime rind and coriander in a shallow non-reactive dish.
  • Cut each chicken breast into 4, and thread onto lemongrass skewers. The lemongrass skewers may bend, if this happens carefully use a knife to cut a slit into the chicken - it should thread on easily now.
  • Place skewers in with marinade and turn to fully coat.
  • Cover and marinade for 3 hours or overnight.
  • Cook skewers on lightly oiled bbq until chicken is browned and cooked through.
  • Combine dressing ingredients in a screw top jar and shake to combine.
  • Serve chicken skewers over rice (optional) and top with dressing.

  1. I love lime, coriander and lemongrass - put them together and you have a winning combination! This chicken was so tender (I marinated them overnight) and the dressing very tasty. I've never come across macadamia nut oil so I used olive oil. Thanks for a lovely recipe and it looked great too.
