Steps:
- Put ginger, garlic and peppers into a food processor and process til smooth.
- Add macadamia nuts and continue to process.
- Add oil, lime juice yogurt, basil, cilantro and spices and process again until smooth.
- Put the chicken in a medium bowl, and add the mixture, stirring to coat all pieces.
- Cover and refrigerate chicken for 12 hours.
- This step is not necessarily required (I have made it after marinating for only 1/2 hour, but the flavor is much better if you do let it marinate).
- Heat a bit of oil (2 tbls) in a wok, or deep dish fry pan.
- Add chicken and its marinade to pan and cook thoroughly, stirring frequently, until marinade sticks to chicken.
- This will take about 20 minutes to 1/2 hour.
- The mixture will look soupy at first, and then begin to thicken up as the sauce reduces.
- I like a little heat, so I also add a little chili oil to the dish.
- Serve with steamed jasmine or basmati rice.

- Cut or chop the fresh cilantro into small pieces over the chicken.
- Include the stems and leaves.

- If chicken is frozen cook for a total of 1 hour 20 minutes and check to insure chiken is done by cutting into one of the breasts.
CHICKEN WITH BASIL AND LIME
The lime-and-soy-marinated chicken is delicious added to the coconut-curry soup, but it can also be served on its own. (Double the recipe if you want each person to have a full serving of chicken.)
