Lemongrass Chicken with Rice and Zucchini Step 3

So easy and delicious, Lindsay.  Thankyou!
As my husband is vegan, I may try this as a tofu spiced saute in addition to the fantastic chicken sautee.

I made this tonight…a double recipe since I had a 3# package of chicken thighs. The chicken took longer than 8-10 minutes to cook, even though I split it into batches so as not to overcrowd. Next time I think I’d cut it up a bit first to shorten the cooking time. I added fish sauce and a splash of soy sauce and a second lime for the double batch. I think I’d halve the sugar next time too. But overall a delicious meal!

This was amazing! Omitted  the jalapeño for my kids and it was a total crowd pleaser! Make this recipe!!

The flavours are so perfect, thanks for the help using zucchini…and it was so easy. 
 I would definitely make again!

Made with jalapeño, zucchini, lemongrass, and garlic from our garden. So fresh and tasty! Yum!

What a great combination of flavors! Was intimidated to use lemongrass but prep was super easy. Will make again!

Made this recipe today and added mushrooms and onions while sautéing the chicken. Also added a dash of fish sauce to the lemongrass sauce for a little more fullness of flavor. It was delicious!

Made this last night.  It was really good.  Cozy, delicious.  Next time I think I will leave more of the jalapeño seeds and ribbing is because I like a little more heat.  I air fried some broccoli as a side.  Would make again.  Perfect!

This recipe is a keeper for sure! It was a hot night so I prepped the chicken in the instant pot so I didn't have to stand over sizzling chicken on a hot pan, hah! I used two jalapenos with all the ribs and seeds and it was perfectly spicy to balance the sweet citrus. Thank you!!

SO yummy!  My kiddo said she’d be happy if I just made the sauce again. Used Trader Joe’s Ajika seasoning instead of paprika and jalapeño, and used coconut milk for fewer calories - but simmered it for a long time to thicken it. 10/10 will make again. 
Would be delicious with tofu plus veggies as well.

This recipe was delicious and was easy to make.  I could not find the coconut cream, had to use coconut milk.  It was still good, the family agreed it was a keeper recipe.  I could not find lemongrass paste but making the lemongrass was quick and easy.

lemongrass paste

chili paste (like Sriracha or Sambal Oelek)

Quinoa

Cook your quinoa according to package directions.

Meatballs

Mix all ingredients. Roll into small meatballs with your hands (they might feel wet and heavy &#8211; pop them in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes to get them to hold their shape a bit better if needed). Heat a little bit of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and fry until golden brown on the outside and fully cooked (not pink) inside.

Bowls

Layer the carrots and meatballs over cooked quinoa. Top with herbs, peanuts, and/or spicy mayo.

Lol I bet to differ Deb- I love POY. And I can always trust whatever recipe (and often time I hope it’s a bowl because who doesn’t LOVE a big bowl of nourishing food) turns out flavorful and amazing. Lindsey’s recipes are always simple yet fun and spot on YUM.

We must be channeling each other today! i just posted a recipe for vegan meatball bahn mi sandwiches. loving the inspiration behind this recipe, Lindsay - can't wait to try it!

Ha-ha!  Can't believe I also knew this factoid!  I work with a Vietnamese lady and once I'd finished butchering the pronunciation (!) she laughed and said - I have Bahn mi for lunch and showed me.  Sure enough - it was a sub roll!!  OK I'm totally biting the bullet and buying a bottle of fish sauce after your recommendation.  Can't wait to make this - looks fabulous.  BTW I love your photos and look of the site!

Beautiful, healthy, delicious. Love the use of flavours. Great work as always (:

I 100% need this in my life now. Totally my jam. 

Your dishes don't look the same, and I think you're rocking it out with all the awesome recipes you've been pushing this spring/summer. 

Keep up the great work Lindsay!

I'm so into a bowl lifestyle :D Lovely idea!

Do you have an estimate of how long they'd take to bake?

Just made / ate this and it was delicious. So many flavourtowns. I didn't know there was a thing as lemongrass paste until I was ordering groceries for this recipe. And it was on sale. You've changed my life!

Can't rate this highly enough! Made it with a rice noodle base andickled some shredded cabbage too. Dressed it with a mix of hoi sin, sweet chilli and crunchy peanut butter - totally amazing. Thank you so much for posting this

Wow! It’s a mind blowing recipe. Crispy and tasty. Everyone in my family love meatballs. Thanks for the recipe Lindsay :)

I've made a bunch of your recipes in the past, but this one was such a hit with my girlfriend that I felt inclined to offer my gratitude :) I obviously enjoyed it immensely as well.  The meatballs were superrrr super tasty, combined with the tangy carrots and the balance of the quinoa really made it a winner.  An FYI to anyone else out there making this bowl, I couldn't find Coconut Palm Sugar or Lemongrass paste...I used brown sugar and lemon zest instead...I think they filled in nicely.  Thanks again, Lindsay! Keep killin' it.

I love these meatballs! I used ground chicken breast and doubled the recipe because I have faith in your recipes. (Going to freeze some for a rainy day.) This lucky girl had some leftover coleslaw from your fish tacos, so threw that in the bowl as well. Thanks for another great recipe.

This was an AMAZING dinner! We served it over quinoa, although I'll be excited to try rice next time. The meatballs were so delicious, and pickled carrots are one of my favorite things ever. Just can't go wrong with this one! We will definitely be having it again. :)
