How to Make Madras Marinade

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, lime juice, orange juice, ginger, garlic, curry powder, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the meat (chicken, pork, or shrimp) to the marinade, ensuring it's fully coated. For best results, poke holes in the meat with a fork to allow deeper penetration of the flavors.
  3. Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat your grill, oven, or broiler.
  5. Remove the meat from the marinade and discard the marinade. Cook the meat according to your preferred method until cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F for chicken, 145°F for pork, and 145°F for shrimp).
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy!
