Ingredients
  • 1/2 c spice paste
  • 10 to 12 stalks (about 12 in.) fresh lemon grass
  • 1 1/4 lbs ground chicken or turkey
  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 to 1 1/2 tbsps sliced fresh Thai or serrano chilies

  • Step #3 Trim root ends from lemon grass.
  • Step #4 Trim tops to make stalks 6 to 8 inches long.
  • Step #5 Remove coarse outer leaves.

  • Step #8 Place chicken sticks in a single layer in a flat pan.
