Steps

• Marinating the Chicken
• Marinate the chicken breast with lime juice, fish sauce, coconut aminos, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preparing the Lemongrass
• Remove the tough outer layers of the lemongrass stalks and finely chop the tender inner part.
• Making the Marinade
• In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped lemongrass, garlic cloves, ginger, and olive oil. Blend until smooth.
• Skewering the Chicken
• Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, alternating with pieces of lemongrass.
• Grilling the Skewers
• Brush the skewers with the lemongrass marinade.
• Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred.
• Serving
• Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
• Serve the Lemongrass Chicken Skewers with a side of salad or cauliflower rice.

Tips

• Soak wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning on the grill.
• If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the skewers in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes.

Information

• Lemongrass adds a refreshing citrusy flavor to the chicken, while the marinade keeps it juicy and flavorful.
