Instructions

  • Preheat your grill to around 500ºF (230ºC). See recipe notes to broil the chicken in an oven instead of on a grill.
  • Place the garlic, cumin, coriander, turmeric, ginger, allspice, salt and oil in a food processor and pulse until you have a paste. Alternatively, you can use a mortar and pestle or a blender.
  • Trim the chicken of excess fat and coat it with the spice paste.
  • Grill the chicken for about 8 minutes on each side.
  • Slice and serve. Serve on cauliflower rice (see related recipes)

Notes

If it's not summer by you, or you don't have a grill, you can cook the chicken at a broil setting in your oven: broil the chicken thighs for 8 to 10 minutes on each side.
