- Add oil to the above mixture and blend to form a smooth paste.
- Remove the prepared green mixture in to a zip lock bag along with the chicken tenders.
- Seal the bag and massage the marinade in to the chicken tenders. Place this bag in the refrigerator overnight or for at least ten hours.
- Use skewers to place the marinated chicken tenders. Sprinkle salt on each side of them.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
- Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate.
- When grilling the chicken, cook it over medium-high heat so that it cooks evenly without burning.
- Serve the chicken with a variety of dipping sauces, such as mint chutney, tamarind chutney, or raita.
