Ingredients

• Chicken thighs, boneless - 400 grams
• Lemongrass, minced - 2 stalks
• Garlic, minced - 3 cloves
• Bird's eye chilies, minced - 2
• Fish sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon

• Fresh cilantro, chopped - 2 tablespoons (for garnish)

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine minced lemongrass, garlic, bird's eye chilies, fish sauce, soy sauce, olive oil, lime juice, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade.
2. Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated, and let marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
3. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
4. Place the marinated chicken thighs on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F) and have nice grill marks.
5. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
6. Serve with chopped fresh cilantro on top, and enjoy with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
