• Place a stir-fry pan over high heat until hot. Add oil, swirling to coat sides. Add garlic, chilies, and sugar; cook, stirring until garlic is fragrant and sugar begins to caramelize, about 15 seconds. Add chicken and stir-fry until surface of chicken turns white, about 1 minute. Add broth; cover and cook until chicken is no longer pink in centre, 3 to 4 minutes.

LEMONGRASS GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS WITH RICE NOODLES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high and prepare for indirect grilling. On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; on a gas grill, turn off half the burners. Combine the lemongrass, 2 tablespoons fish sauce, the brown sugar, 1 tablespoon each sesame oil, lime juice and water and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved, about 1 minute. Pour into a heatproof bowl; stir in 1 more tablespoon lime juice.
• Toss the wings in a separate bowl with 3 tablespoons of the sauce and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Place on the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat), cover and cook, turning once, until cooked through but not browned, 15 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook and cool the noodles as the label directs. Cut the cucumber into matchsticks. Toss in a colander with a pinch of salt; squeeze to remove the excess liquid. Add to the noodles along with the chile, herbs and remaining 3 tablespoons sesame oil, 2 teaspoons fish sauce and 2 teaspoons lime juice; season with salt and pepper and toss, adding more lime juice to taste.
• Move the wings to direct heat; cook, turning and brushing with some of the remaining sauce, until crisp, 10 more minutes. Transfer to a bowl and toss with the remaining sauce. Serve with the noodles.

LEMONGRASS-CHICKEN MEATBALLS ON RICE VERMICELLI

Steps:

• 1. To make the dipping sauce, bring 1/2 cup water and the granulated sugar to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Pour into a bowl and let cool. Add the fish sauce, vinegar, garlic, carrot, and chiles and stir well.
• 2. To prepare the vermicelli, place in a medium bowl and add enough hot tap water to cover. Let stand until the vermicelli is tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold running water. Drain again and return to the bowl. Toss with 1 teaspoon of the vegetable oil.
• 3. To make the scallion oil, pour the remaining vegetable oil into a medium skillet. Add the garlic and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until softened but not browned, about 2 minutes. Add the scallions and cook, stirring often, until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• 4. To make the meatballs, remove and discard the outer layers from the lemongrass to reveal the pale yellow inner stalk. Trim off the bulbous tip of the stalk. Using a very sharp knife, thinly slice the lemongrass into rounds until you reach the very tough upper stalk. Discard the upper stalk. Transfer the sliced lemongrass to a food processor fitted with the metal chopping blade. Pulse about 12 times, until the lemongrass is finely minced. Measure 1 1/2 tablespoons of the minced lemongrass. (The remaining lemongrass can be frozen for up to 3 months.)
• 5. Combine the minced lemongrass, ground chicken, shallots, fish sauce, cornstarch, chile, garlic, brown sugar, and salt in a large bowl and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 4 hours. Using your wet hands rinsed under cold water, shape the meat mixture into 12 equal meatballs.
• 6. Prepare a medium-hot fire in an outdoor grill.
• 7. To grill the meatballs with a basket, lightly oil the molds (a pump oil sprayer works best). Place the meatballs in the basket and close it. Place the basket on the cooking grate and cover. Grill the meatballs until the undersides are lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Flip the basket over and grill until the other sides are lightly browned and the meatballs are cooked through, about 4 minutes. Remove the meatballs from the basket and transfer to a bowl. To grill the meatballs without the basket, lightly oil the cooking grate. Place the meatballs on the grill and cover. Grill until the undersides are lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Flip the meatballs and cook until the other sides are browned and the meatballs are cooked through, about 4 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl.
• 8. Pour the dipping sauce into 4 ramekins. Divide the rice vermicelli among 4 deep bowls. Top each with 3 meatballs and equal amounts of the scallion oil. Serve with the dipping sauce.
