Lemongrass Grilled Chicken And Pork Chops
Photo by Chris De La Rosa
Ginger and Lemongrass (say fever grass in the Caribbean) are two of my fav flavors for marinating meats, especially when playing on the grill. Arguably not a Caribbean recipe, but the closer you look at the ingredients in the marinade you’ll understand why I shared this recipe.
You’ll Need…
* 2 lbs chicken
* 2 lbs pork
* 1 tablespoon fish sauce
* 1 /2 tablespoon veg oil
* 1 teaspoon grated ginger
* 2 scallions (chopped)
* 3 bird’s eye pepper (chopped)
* 4 cloves garlic (crushed)
* 1 pimento pepper (chopped / optional)
* 1 tablespoon soy sauce
* 1 tablespoon sugar
* 1 1/2 tablespoon rice vinegar
* 1 teaspoon black pepper
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1 1/2 tablespoon finely chopped lemongrass
* 1 tablespoon Hoisin sauce
Notes! I recommend that you follow along with the video below, as much more about the recipe is discussed there, including the cuts of chicken and pork to use and how to cook indoors or outdoors on your choice of grill.
Since I was making a combination of chicken and pork, I placed them in a bowl and divided the marinade between them. Marinate for at least 2 hours before grilling.
Grill over direct heat for 2 – 3 minutes on each side, then move them to cook for another 25 minutes with indirect heat (lid on). The cooking time will vary according to the thickness of the meats. The sugars in the marinade will want to burn or char quickly, so keep that in mind
Basically, grill them the way you’d normally grill.
Serve with lime wedges or Hoisin sauce as a dip. Feel free to also brush on some Hoisin a minute or 2 before you’re done grilling them. Slice and get ready to enjoy some of the best chicken and pork you’ve ever had.
