Ingredients

• 2 pounds Chicken wings
• 3 Lemongrass stalks
• 4 Garlic cloves
• 2 Shallots
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Fish sauce
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha or chili paste
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Trim the lemongrass stalks and remove the tough outer layers. Finely chop the inner stalks and set aside.

Step 2

In a food processor or blender, combine the chopped lemongrass, garlic cloves, shallots, ginger, soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, sriracha, vegetable oil, and ground black pepper. Blend into a smooth marinade.

Step 3

Place the chicken wings in a large bowl or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the wings, making sure they are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 4

Preheat your grill or oven. If grilling, heat to medium-high (about 375°F/190°C). If baking, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 5

If grilling, place the marinated wings on the grill and cook for 25-30 minutes, turning every 5-7 minutes, until the skin is browned and crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). If baking, arrange the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked wings to a serving plate and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.

Step 7

Serve warm with lime wedges or a side of your favorite dipping sauce, like sweet chili or soy-lime sauce.
