Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped lemongrass
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1 ½ pounds chicken thighs, or more to taste, pounded to an even thickness

Steps:

  • Mix canola oil, lemongrass, lemon juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and fish sauce together in a mixing bowl until the sugar is dissolved; add chicken and turn to coat in the marinade.
  • Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken thighs from the marinade and shake to remove excess marinade. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Grill chicken until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
