THAI GRILLED CHICKEN (GAI YANG)



Thai Grilled Chicken (Gai Yang) image

The marinade for this chicken is true to the authentic Thai grilled chicken (Gai Yang). Traditional Gai Yang is served with a dipping sauce but I find chicken thighs so juicy that it doesn't need it. Instead, I incorporate the flavour into the Marinade. Traditionally this is cooked over charcoal which gives it a wonderful smokey flavour. But it really is fantastic even cooked on the stove or in the oven, though my preference is to cook it on the outdoor grill. The key ingredients are the lemongrass and fish sauce - don't omit or substitute these!

Time 16m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 lb / 1 kg chicken thigh fillets ((skinless, boneless) (Note 1))
1 large lemongrass stalk (, white part only very finely chopped (about 2 tbsp) (Note 2))
6 cloves garlic (, minced)
2 tbsp lime juice
2 tsp finely chopped red chili ((optional but recommended))
3 tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine (, sherry or sake (Japanese cooking wine) (Note 4))
1 tsp sesame oil ((optional))
3 tbsp brown sugar or palm sugar
2 tbsp honey ((or 1 tbsp brown sugar))
1/2 tbsp black pepper ((adjust to taste - this adds spiciness))
Lime wedges
Red chili (, finely sliced (optional))
Cilantro / coriander leaves ((optional))

Steps:

  • Place Marinade ingredients in a large ziplock bag. Massage to mix.
  • Add the chicken into the ziplock bag and massage to spread the marinade over all the chicken. Marinate for a minimum of 3 hours, preferably overnight (up to 24 hours).
  • Remove chicken from the Marinade and discard the Marinade (unless baking in the oven - refer Note 3).
  • Heat the outdoor grill on medium high. Or heat 1/2 tbsp oil in a non stick pan over medium high heat on the stove.

  • Rest for a few minutes before serving with lime wedges on the side, and garnished with fresh chilies and cilantro, if using.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon roasted peanut oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1 large red onion, finely diced
1 pound ground chicken
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
2 teaspoons chili-garlic sauce (such as sambal oelek)
Kosher salt
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 bunch mustard greens, leaves torn
6 ounces rice vermicelli noodles
1/4 cup finely chopped pickled ginger
Chopped salted peanuts and fresh cilantro, for topping

Steps:

  • Heat the peanut oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the fresh ginger and all but 1/4 cup of the red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the ground chicken, turmeric, chili-garlic sauce and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, breaking up the meat, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup water, the chicken broth and mustard greens (the pot will be very full, but the greens will wilt quickly). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the broth has reduced slightly and the greens are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil; remove from the heat and add the vermicelli noodles, stirring to separate them. Let the noodles soak until tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain, run under cold water and shake dry. Use kitchen shears to cut the noodles into smaller pieces.
  • Divide the pickled ginger, noodles and chicken-broth mixture among bowls. Top with peanuts, cilantro and the reserved red onion; season with salt.
