Instructions

Grind any whole spices in a pestle and mortar. Then put all the ingredients except the chicken in a food processor. If the mixture is too dry add a little more vinegar.
Rub the mixture into the chicken and leave in the fridge to marinate for at least an hour. If you use larger pieces of chicken, make a few slashes in them with a knife before rubbing the marinade in.
Fry the chicken pieces in a little oil until cooked inside and browned on the outside. You could also roast it in the oven or barbecue it.
