Lemongrass Chicken Drum is a flavorful dish inspired by Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly Vietnamese cooking. It features chicken drumsticks marinated in a fragrant blend of lemongrass, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and a touch of honey or brown sugar for sweetness. Grilled or baked to perfection, the dish boasts a balance of savory, citrusy, and slightly smoky flavors. Lemongrass, a key ingredient, is known for its anti-inflammatory and digestion-supporting properties, while lean chicken provides a great source of high-quality protein. The dish is relatively low in fat when skinless drumsticks are used and prepared without excessive oil. However, added sugars and sodium from the marinade may be a concern for those monitoring such intakes. Serve it with steamed vegetables or a whole-grain side for a nutrient-rich, satisfying meal.
