["BEGIN WITH THE MARINADE
2
Blend Onions, garlic and fresh ginger, chilies, if using without water in a blender. Do it in pulses and if it is difficult, open the blender and scoop the sides in with a spatula. When ready put onion mixture into a large bowl.", "Add spices to onion mixture and mix well.", "Add chicken pieces to spice mixture, making sure chicken pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl with clingfilm and leave in the fridge to marinate overnight", "When ready to cook, put chicken and marinade in a pan and do not add any water. Let steam on medium - low heat for about 15 minutes, stirring now and again so it doesn't burn. The point isn't to cook the chicken but to give the marinade one last chance to infuse the chicken with flavour. You can use the left over cooked marinade to make stock by adding some boiling water and straining.", "When steaming is done, put grill on medium and place chicken pieces on a baking rack and set rack about 6 inches down from the top of the grill. You may have to do this in batches. Grill to doneness and desired brownness, turning a couple of times to ensure even cooking! Alternatively, place on a baking tray in the middle of the oven set to the highest and bake/roast till done, 15 - 20 minutes"]
