Larb Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• To make toasted rice, place rice in a dry hot wok; swirl until golden brown, allow to cool, then grind in a mortar& pestle or spice mill.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in wok and add the chicken; stir-fry until cooked through.
• Drain chicken and place in mixing bowl, adding lemongrass, green onion, red onion, galangal, fish sauce, lime juice, chiles, and ground rice; mix well and set aside.
• On a bed of lettuce leaves, arrange chicken mixture and garnish with mint and cilantro.
• Serve with steamed sticky rice or steamed jasmine rice, using small amounts of rice to pick up the larb.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken. Cook and stir until chicken is broken into little pieces, about 5 minutes. Add red onion and scallions. Continue to cook and break up the chicken until browned, about 2 minutes. Add cilantro, mint, ginger, lemon grass, fish sauce, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir until flavors blend, about 3 minutes more. Season with sea salt.

Steps:

• Put minced chicken in a pot with water to cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Turn heat to low, and simmer a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until done. Meanwhile put rice in a wok or skillet over high heat, and cook, stirring constantly, until it is evenly brown but not burned. Place in grinder and grind to a powder.
• In a bowl, combine chicken, rice powder, nam pla, lime juice, sugar, and chile; taste and adjust seasoning as necessary. Make a bed of romaine leaves on a platter and spoon chicken mixture into middle. Top with remaining ingredients and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk first 4 ingredients in medium bowl to blend; reserve sauce.
• Bring broth to simmer in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken. Simmer until cooked through, breaking up meat with spoon, about 8 minutes. Add green onions and next 3 ingredients. Stir until vegetables are tender and most of liquid has evaporated, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in sauce, cilantro and mint. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spoon into lettuce leaves; serve.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook chicken over medium heat until no longer pink, 8-10 minutes, breaking it into crumbles; drain. In the same skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add shallots and chiles; cook and stir until tender, 3-4 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the cooked chicken, lime juice, fish sauce, chili sauce, brown sugar and Sriracha. Cook and stir until heated through. Stir in cilantro and mint. Serve with rice and, if desired, lettuce leaves.

Steps:

• For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, rice powder and chile powder until combined. Set aside.
• For the larb: In a large bowl, combine the chicken, scallions, onion, cilantro and mint, then slowly pour the dressing over the top while tossing. Mix gently but thoroughly. Taste and adjust any seasonings as needed. The larb should be tangy, salty and a little spicy (like me).
