Crush them using a pestle and mortar, then pour them into a liquidiser with the coriander stalks, cumin, ginger, chillies, 2 tbsp olive oil, salt and juice of 1 lime. Whizz until smooth, then use to coat the chicken in an ovenproof dish. Cover and leave to marinade for a minimum one hour, but preferably overnight.
