This marinade gives colour and flavour to the poussins and turns your microwave into an Indian "tandoor", or oven.
4 poussins

1 small onion, chopped
1 small piece fresh ginger, grated
2 tsps ground coriander
2 tsps ground cumin
2 tsps paprika
1 tsp turmeric

Juice of 1 lime
2 green chilli peppers, seeded and chopped
2 tbsps chopped fresh chives
Salt and pepper

To Serve

1 head of lettuce, broken into leaves

3. Leave to stand, loosely covered, for 5 minutes before serving.
