A wonderfully easy dish to prepare.
- 1 t finely grated fresh ginger (but 1/2 t ground ginger powder will work)
- 1 t finely grated garlic (also can smash it)
- 3/4 t salt
- 1/2 t cayenne (optional – add it and it tastes better, but the frying will make the air unbreathable)
- 1/2 t cumin seeds, finely ground
- 1/2 t coriander seeds, finely ground
- 1/4 t ground turmeric
- 1 pound, 4 oz lamb chops (8) or de-boned chicken pieces (skin helps with flavor, though)
- 3 T canola oil
- mix ginger, garlic, salt, caynne, cumin, coriander and turmeric, then coat meat in it.
- Marinate 2 hour or up to 8 hours in the refridgerator
- Heat large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium high heat and add oil, or make a high heat BBQ.
- Sear the meat until done. 4-10 min
- Let rest for a bit before serving
