Prepare the Ingredients for Salt and Lemongrass Steamed Chicken Thighs:
– Lemongrass: clean and finely chop half, crush the other half into 3cm pieces.
– Fresh ginger: peel, clean, finely chop half, and thinly slice the other half.
– Rinse chicken thighs with a mixture of white wine, finely chopped ginger, and a little salt to eliminate the chicken odor.
– Mix finely chopped chili, shallots, lemongrass, seasoning powder, cooking oil, and pepper. Rub the mixture evenly around the chicken and let it marinate for 30 minutes for the flavors to infuse.

Steps to Prepare Lemongrass Salt Steamed Chicken Thighs:
Spread a sufficient amount of coarse salt evenly on the bottom of a thick pot, about 0.5 cm thick.
Layer lemongrass, lime leaves, and ginger one by one on top.
Place a plate about 2cm above, then put the chicken thighs on top, cover tightly, and steam over low-medium heat for 40-45 minutes.

During steaming, ensure the pot lid is tightly closed for the chicken to cook in the hot steam. After 20 minutes, flip the chicken to ensure even cooking.
Once the chicken is fully cooked, carefully lift the lemongrass salt steamed chicken thighs out, cut into bite-sized pieces, arrange on a plate, garnish with sliced lime leaves, and add a few slices of chili on top.
