Steps:
- Place the sesame seeds and spices in a pestle and mortar or spice grinder and lightly crush. Mix with the oil, lemon zest and juice and season to taste.
- Rub the mixture all over the food, cover and marinate for 4 hours or overnight in the fridge for meats and poultry. Fish needs only 30 minutes. Allow the food to return to room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.
- To cook- If barbecuing, turn frequently and baste with any excess marinade.
- To roast a whole chicken, rub all over and roast at 400F for 1-1½ hours.
