Ingredients:
1 whole fryer chickens, cut up or 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
5 cloves garlic
sea salt
3 small dried cayenne peppers ( about 1/2 teaspoon, crushed pepper flakes)
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon smoked paprika ( about)
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
oil ( for frying)
Directions:
Using a mortar and pestle, mash garlic and salt until creamy.
Add cayenne peppers and cumin seeds and continue to mash.
Add paprika and mix.
Add oil and mix, then add vinegar and mix again.
Marinate chicken for 2-3 hours in the refrigerator.
(I have made the recipe until this point and frozen the raw chicken– when you thaw it, it will be even tastier than marinating in the fridge, after thawing, prepare as follows) Heat a small amount of oil over medium high heat.
Fry chicken pieces until cooked through– for bone-in, about 20 minutes or so, for boneless skinless breasts, about 15 minutes.
May also be done on the grill.
