Ingredients
  • 2 lbs boneless chicken, chopped
  • 2 stalks fresh lemon grass
  • 3 kaffir lime leaves
  • 2 to 6 red chili peppers, depending on how spicy you want it
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  • 5+ tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 green onions
  • 16 sprigs cilantro
  • 24 mint leaves
  • 2 tablespoon ground red chili peppers or cayenne (optional)
  • Few leaves of lettuce (optional)

Directions
  1. Chop chicken well into slightly smaller than bite-size pieces
  2. Chop all veggies/leaves
  3. Heat a skillet and cook chicken in a little water - no oil - stirring constantly. If you are a fan of fish sauce, feel free to add a couple of squirts to chicken now as well.
  4. Set aside to cool
  5. In a bowl, combine chicken, lemongrass, lime leaves, chili peppers, lime juice, and fish sauce. Mix well.
  6. Stir in all the rest.
  7. Serve chilled or at room temperature. (optional: serve over lettuce as a salad. I prefer just to eat it straight.)
  8. Notes: Depending on the kind of peppers you use and the amount of seeds you include, this dish can get spicy fast. I recommend using only one or two to start.
  9. Also, I have made this without the lime leaves and ground chili peppers on many occasions, it is still just as good!
  10. I usually double this recipe since it is easy to save for later since you can eat it cold...yum!

Thank you for the chicken larb recipe--it was delicious and authentic. We served it with sticky rice and salsa


Oh, this sounds delicious! I wasn't familiar with the name, but I love Thai salads and will have to try this.


I love the Larb Gai at my local restaurant and am psyched to find a recipe that someone recommends! Can't wait to try it.


This sounds amazing - I'll be making this for sure. thanks for sharing!


Larb gai is one of my fave foods. We made this recipe tonight and it was delish. Thanks for sharing!
