African Spice Rub

 

African spice makes a great rub for either chicken or pork.  Tonight I am rubbing this paste all over some chicken breasts before cooking them on the grill.  You can marinate the meat covered and chilled for up to 4 hours.

 
African Spice Paste

 

8  dried hot red chilies

Coarsely grind chilies, spice seeds, garlic, and peppercorns in grinder or with mortar and pestle, then stir together with salt and oil in a bowl to form a spice paste.
