  • 2Cut the chicken into 1 ¼-inch pieces and put in a bowl. Spoon the lemongrass mixture over the chicken and stir until evenly coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
  • 3To make the sauce, heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots, ginger, garlic, cilantro, and chili pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally for 3-4 minutes until softened.
