Thai chicken with lemongrass

Lemongrass is one of my favourite “herbs” (is it a herb?). It has such a wonderful lemony taste and perfume. This small meatballs are skewered on a stick of lemongrass to get even more of that perfume into them. This recepy is best, if after preparing the little meatballs you let them infuse a little bit (I was hungry and couldn’t wait).

Ingredients:

• the breast of a chicken
• coriander
• chilli
• zest and juice of a lime
• lemongrass
• soysauce
• fishsauce
• breadcrumbs
• spring onions
• salt and pepper

Method:

1. cut the chicken breast into chunks and put it in the blender;
2. add the coriander, chilli, spring onions, one stick of lemongrass cut into chunks (take away the first 2 leaves), the lime, salt and pepper and blend;
3. add the fish- and the soysauce, and then add the breadcrumbs
4. prepare the other sticks of lemongrass and put the meatmix on it;
5. cook on a moderate heat on the stove (or on the grill).
