Coconut Lemongrass Chicken

Features:
    Cuisine:

    We enjoy spicy food, but, following the directions yet omitting the chilis, the dish was way too spicy and salty. used a total of three 15 oz. cans of light coconut milk and served it over unseasoned rice. It was then delicious.

    Coconut Lemongrass Chicken, Recipe from Food Network BE WARNED!!!!! This is a very spicy dish You may want to adjust the seasonings accordingly I repeat, this is a very spicy dish That said, everyone at my house loved it The chicken (used thighs) came about unbelievably melt in your mouth tender Serve on a bed of rice noodles Yummy!, We enjoy spicy food, but, following the directions yet omitting the chilis, the dish was way too spicy and salty used a total of three 15 oz cans of light coconut milk and served it over unseasoned rice It was then delicious , I made this dish for my 4 and 6 year old grandchildren who have pretty sophisticated palates However, I omitted the chilis all together and otherwise followed the directions It was way too salty used a whole can of coconut milk and it was still too salty; I will add another can when I get to their house Since I’m serving it over rice, I’m hoping we enjoy the dish Stay tuned We had dinner while babysitting the kiddos last night I had to add two more full cans of light coconut milk (for a total of three) and still it was a bit salty and spicy The kids loved it! I served it over brown rice with broccoli on the side Needless to say I had plenty of sauce
