• Ready In: 4hrs 10mins
• Ingredients: 13
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 lb chicken breast, cut into strips
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 green onion, minced
• 2 tablespoons minced lemongrass (I grated mine)
• 2 tablespoons curry powder
• 1 tablespoon honey or 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
• 1⁄2 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1⁄2 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1⁄2 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1⁄4 cup water
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (to prevent drying)

directions

1. Mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
2. Place the chicken strips on skewers and pour the rest of the marinade over. Cook on a grill over low heat until the chicken is golden brown all over (I just put mine under the broiler. They really do need an open flame.).
3. Serve with mango salsa on the side.
