Steps:
- Place chicken breasts between 2 pieces of wax or parchment paper and, using a meat mallet, pound to an even ½-inch thickness. (Skip this step if substituting chicken tenderloins.)
- Mix all ingredients except chicken together in a small bowl or measuring cup. Place pounded chicken breasts inside a 1 gallon zip-lock bag. Add marinade to the bag, press air out and seal shut. Massage marinade into the breasts until evenly coated. Place the bag in a bowl in the refrigerator (to protect against leakage), and let the chicken marinate for 5-6 hours.
- Clean grill and preheat to high. Place chicken breasts on grill, spooning marinade over top. Grill, covered, for 2-3 minutes per side. Do not overcook.

Though there are plenty of chiles in this paste, they don't overpower it. The aromatic bite of coriander, the earthiness of cumin and the licorice trace of caraway seeds create a pleasingly complex flavor. This paste is also delicious with pork. (So says Gourmet Magazine. ;)) Chicken rubbed with spice paste can marinate, covered and chilled, up to 4 hours before grilling. Spice paste keeps, covered and chilled, up to 1 week. See notes below for directions using a gas grill. SPECIAL EQUIPMENT: an electric coffee/spice grinder or mortar and pestle; a 17- by 12- by 3-inch aluminum roasting pan (if using charcoal).
