Grilled Chicken with Caribbean Green Seasoning

My friend Shahid gave me some Spanish thyme plants, as well as some leaves and a verbal recipe for making a green sauce. Here is what I made up with it.

Ingredients:

Caribbean  Green Seasoning:

• 1.5 cups (40g) chopped cilantro
• 1 cup (25g) roughly chopped parsley
• 1/2 cup chopped Vidalia onion
• 6 to 8 leaves Spanish thyme
• 3-4 tablespoons lemon jucie (or apple cider vinegar)
• 1/2 teaspoon minced ginger (or 1/4 teaspoon powdered)
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic (or 1/2 teaspoon powdered)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
• optional - chili to taste
• water as needed, perhaps about 1/4  to 1/2 cup
  

Chicken:

• 2 large boneless chicken breasts
  

 

Instructions:

1. Whirr all the green seasoning ingredients except the water in a food processor.
2. Add some water as needed to make mixture spreadable
3. Brush tops of chicken with 2 tablespoons of green seasoning, let marinade for at least 30 minutes
4. Grill chicken, serve with extra sauce on the side
