Sambal Ayam Bali - Balinese Lemon Grass




Source of Recipe


A recipe I had picked up in the Pacific.






Recipe Introduction


This is a great dish served in Bali, simple but tasty.

Serves 4.





List of Ingredients



• 3 sliced Shallots
  
• 1 sliced (very thinly, only white part) Lemon grass
  
• 1/4 cup (65g) Oil ( I use peanut oil)
  
• salt (as needed)
  
• 3 sliced Holland red peppers
  
• 1-1/2 tsp. (7g) Shrimp paste
  
• 10 chopped Birdseye chilis
  
• 2 deboned chicken breasts
  
• 2 Limes
  






Instructions



1. Season chicken breasts with salt then grill or broil. Set aside until cool enough to be handled. Shred to small pieces with a fork.
   
2. Use mortar and pestle to ground Holland red peppers, birdseye chilis, lemon grass, shrimp paste, and salt coarsely.
   
3. Heat a oil in a wok, then fry ground pieces for a minute then add shredded chicken. Cook until chicken pieces are heated through. Season with more salt as needed. Transfer chicken to a plate and sprinkle with lime juice.
