CILANTRO MINT CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients to the blender and blend until you get a smooth consistency. Add extra 1 to 2 tablespoons of water if needed. Taste and add more salt if needed. Makes about 2 cups of green chutney.
• The chutney stays good in the refrigerator for up to a week. But I recommend freezing any leftovers after a day in smaller portions in silicone ice cube trays.

EASY MINT CHUTNEY (5 MINUTES!)

Steps:

• To an 8-cup or smaller food processor, add all ingredients: mint, cilantro, garlic, jalapeño (starting with the lesser amount), lemon juice, maple syrup, coconut yogurt, water, sea salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth. If using a larger food processor, we suggest doubling the batch size or it may have trouble blending.
• Add more water, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) at a time, to reach your desired consistency. Taste and adjust as needed, adding more jalapeño for heat (we used the full suggested amount), lemon juice for acidity, maple syrup to balance and add sweetness, garlic for zing, or sea salt to taste.
• Enjoy fresh in bowls or on fritters, dosas, pakoras, chickpea pancakes, aloo sabzi, or aloo tikki.
• Best when fresh. Leftovers will keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. If freezing, freeze into ice cube molds then store in a well-sealed container in the freezer for up to 1 month.

TANDOORI-STYLE CHICKEN WITH CILANTRO-MINT SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the chicken: Preheat a grill to medium high and oil the grates. Combine the yogurt, lime juice, vegetable oil, ginger, shallot and garlic in a food processor. Add the garam masala, sweet paprika, turmeric and kosher salt; puree.
• Place the chicken between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a heavy skillet or the flat side of a meat mallet until an even 1/2-inch thickness. Marinate the chicken in the yogurt mixture while you make the cilantro-mint sauce.
• Make the cilantro-mint sauce: Combine the cilantro, mint, coconut milk, jalapeño, lime juice, vegetable oil and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt in the food processor. Puree until smooth.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper and grill until browned and well marked, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and grill until the chicken is cooked through, about 2 more minutes.
• Top the chicken with the cilantro-mint sauce.
