Larb is a delicious, flavorful, dance in your mouth party Thai dish that is served over lettuce, or cabbage. I like to eat it spooned into Savoy cabbage leaves kind of like a taco.

This dish comes together fast so have everything measured and on hand before making.

 

Ingredients:

1 pd ground chicken

4 1/2 Tbsp. toasted rice (you can find this in an Asian market, (so much better home made though)

3 3/4 tsp chili pepper flakes

3 1/2 Tbsp fish sauce

1 1/2 Tbsp salt

4 large clove chopped shallots

3 cloves chopped garlic

4 large squeezed limes

green onion chopped (couple of hand fulls)

cilantro chopped (couple of hand fulls)

mint chopped (couple of hand fulls)

Directions:

  1. mix 1/2 of the lime juice, salt, and meat
  2. Squeeze the juice out of meat as much as possible and set aside reserving the squeezed out juice.
  3. Put the squeezed juice into a large skillet. Get the juice hot and add ground chicken.
  4. Cook the meat until dons and add shallots cook about a minute then add the rest of the ingredients.
  5. Stir until combined and heated.

Serve either on lettuce like a salad or my favorite is to spoon into Savoy cabbage leaves !

Serve with Jasmine rice on the side. YUMMY!
