2. Add all the above ingredients except the chicken and mix well. 
3. If the paste is too thick then you can add more lemon juice or little water.
4. Once a thick paste is formed, taste the marinade and then based on your taste needs you can add more of the ingredients.
5. Then add the chicken pieces and coriander leaves and mix well until every chicken piece is evenly coated with the marinade.
6. Now set aside the marinated chicken for about 4 hours. These 4 hours are important to allow the flavors from the marinade to get into the chicken.
