Preparation -- 10 minutes + marinating time

PEEL and coarsely chop the shallots and garlic cloves. Remove the seeds of the chili peppers if you like a milder version and also coarsely chop the peppers. CREATE a puree of the shallots, garlic cloves and chili peppers.

You can use a mortar or small blender. ADD turmeric, coriander, ginger, lemongrass, soy sauce and brown sugar and blend until you've reached a smooth paste.

REMOVE any excess fat or muscles from the chicken breasts and chop into bite-size pieces. COMBINE the spice paste with the chicken and let it marinate for at least an hour.
