The yogurt in this lightly spiced marinade results in extremely tender lamb, chicken, or shrimp. Ingredients:
1 cup plain yogurt |
1 bunch cilantro, stems removed |
6 garlic cloves, peeled |
1 3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into chunks |
1/2 medium onion, peeled and cut into chunks |
3 tablespoons garam masala |
juice of 3 large limes |
salt and pepper to taste |
2 pounds lamb chops, chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch pieces), or shrimp (peeled and deveined) |
Directions:
1. 1 In a blender, puree the first 8 ingredients until they form a paste. 2. 2 In a large bowl, toss your protein with the marinade. Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight. 3. 3 When ready to cook, heat the grill and shake any excess marinade from the protein. Grill 9 minutes for chops, 6 to 8 minutes a side on a covered grill for chicken, or 4 minutes a side for shrimp. Serve. |
