Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for best flavor.

Let the chicken come to room temperature.

Grease the chicken with oil and grill for 5 minutes on each side.

Flip every 5 minutes until cooked through, about 25 minutes.

Set aside and cover with foil.

Stir in tomato paste, garlic, ginger, turmeric, cumin, salt, coconut milk, and lemon juice.

Reduce heat, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
