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
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
1 tablespoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon caraway seeds
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
2 teaspoons kosher salt
5 tablespoons olive oil
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.
