Balinese Chicken

[Chef Metcalf]

Balinese Chicken

Use as many tablespoons of the super fine cut leaves as you have the patience to cut.

The more the better.

You can expand on this and add garlic or whatever, but just the pure kaffir flavour is fantastic.

• 6 T (minimum) finely minced kaffir lime leaves
  
• 1 chicken, cut up
  
• sweet chili sauce
  

Remove the skin from the chicken and rub with peanut oil (evoo for European dishes, peanut oil for Asian).

Sprinkle with kaffir and massage into the chicken.

Leave it in the fridge to marinate for 1-24 hours.

Then BBQ it.

If it's too cold then bake it but it's much better BBQ'd.

Baste it while BBQ'ing or baking with some extra peanut oil/kaffir mixture.

Serve the sweet chili sauce on the side for dipping (try and find Cock brand, it's seems to be the best quality as some of the others have really crunchy indigestible chili's).
