Ingredients

• 5-7 garlic cloves
• 2-inch piece of ginger, peeled and chopped
• 1 cup fresh cilantro, stemmed and loosely packed
• 1 tbsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp ground coriander
• 2 limes, juiced
• 1 tbsp canola oil

Directions

1. In a food processor, pulse the garlic, ginger and cilantro to chop. Scrape the sides of the bowl and pulse a few more times, until the ingredients are blended in a rough and crumbly mixture. Pour the mixture into a large bowl and add the pepper, coriander, lime juice and oil. Use a spoon to smash the blend the mixture until it comes together as a paste. To apply, slide your fingers between the skin and the chicken, and gently lift up the skin over the breast. Massage an equal amount of the paste, about 2 tbsp, under the skin of each chicken half. Rub another 2 tbsp of the paste on top of each chicken half.
