Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 shallots, halved
1 red bell pepper, chopped
3 fresh red chile peppers, or more to taste
1 stalk lemongrass, white part sliced
5 macadamia nuts
2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon chopped fresh ginger
1 teaspoon white sugar, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
salt to taste
¼ cup vegetable oil
4 chicken legs
½ cup light coconut milk

Steps:

  • Place shallots, red bell pepper, chile peppers, lemongrass, macadamia nuts, garlic, ginger, sugar, turmeric, and salt in a food processor. Pulse into a smooth spice paste.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add spice paste; cook and stir until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken legs and coconut milk to the skillet; stir well to make sure chicken is coated with sauce. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, covered, until chicken is cooked through, about 40 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from skillet and let cool, about 15 minutes. Reserve sauce for serving.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Grill chicken until skin is dark and caramelized, about 5 minutes per side. Serve with reserved sauce.

This recipe is not worth your time. The chicken was bland and the sauce was watery.

I followed the recipe to the letter, but my chicken came out dry and overcooked. Very disappointed.

This recipe is a fail. The chicken was undercooked and the sauce was way too salty.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken didn't turn out anything like the pictures. It was dry and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't turn out as tender as I had hoped. I think I might have overcooked it.

This dish is a great way to add some spice to your next meal. The chicken is coated in a flavorful marinade and then grilled to perfection. The sauce is also very tasty.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they were cooked through in about 20 minutes. The sauce was also very flavorful.
