- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin

Marinate chicken pieces in a large ziplock bag or nonreactive dish for at least 4 to and up to 8 hours in refrigerator; longer than this will begin to overtenderize it. Cook chicken by barbequing, grilling, baking, or sautéing.
Do not serve “used” marinade with cooked food.
