Liven up your next barbecue with these tender marinated pieces of chicken breast, with a delicious spicy flavour. Very simple to make and fantastic hot or cold, ideal for picnics. I have used the marinade for turkey, pork fillets, prawns and even tuna steaks (cut marinade time down to 1 hour for fish). Serve with a bowl of yoghurt/cucumber/mint or a dip of sour cream with juice of 1/2 a lime and 1/4 teaspoon of paprika.

- Put all other ingredients (marinade) into a blender/liquidizer and whiz to a smooth paste.
- Mix the marinade thoroughly with the chicken strips, cover with cling film and leave in fridge for 4 hours or overnight if possible.
- Put grill to highest heat and spread chicken directly onto rack (leave marinade on chicken, don't wipe off), grill for 8-10 minutes, turning frequently, until almost black in patches.
- Note: You can also grill/broil this indoors, place a wire rack onto a baking sheet that has been lined with foil (to catch the drips) turn grill up to highest heat and cook 8-10 minutes.
