Directions
Lemongrass Whole Roasted Chicken, What a great roast chicken! It also has a dipping sauce with it, delicious alone or with sauce From Pleasures Of the Vietnamese Table by Mai Pham> time does not include 4 hours marinating, Very good chicken! used my food processor to mince the lemongrass, shallots and garlic which made prep super easy! Very juicy and flavorful dish!, Fantastic roast chicken with a unique Vietnamese flavour that we just love! So moist and tender! The dipping sauce is wonderful and could also be used for dumplings/pot stickers I am saving the left overs in hopes I will get some more use of it I didn’t think that the dish was too much trouble, prehaps an extra 10 min for making the marinade and the dipping sauce Made for 1-2-3- Tag
