Peri Peri Chicken Recipe

chicken legs

smoked paprika

garlic powder

Salt and pepper

peppers

garlic chopped

paprika

cilantro

basil

olive oil oil

lemon

Salt

FOR SERVING: Chopped parsley, spicy chili flakes

Pat the chicken legs dry and rub them down with the paprika, garlic, and salt and pepper. Cover and set aside.

Heat your oven to 400 degrees F.

For the peri peri sauce, add the peppers, garlic, paprika, cilantro and basil to a food processor. Process until well mixed.

Drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to process until the mixture thickens up.

Stir in the lemon juice and adjust for salt.

Use half of the peri peri sauce to cover the chicken. Toss them together to get the chicken legs nicely coated. You can cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour at this point if you’d like more developed flavor.

FOR BAKING: Bake the chicken for 35-40 minutes, or until they are nicely cooked through. They should measure 165 degrees F internally.

FOR GRILLING: Fire up the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates. Grill the chicken legs for about 35-40 minutes, turning them every 5 minutes to keep from burning, until they are cooked through. They should measure 165 degrees F internally.

Remove from the oven and toss in the remaining peri peri sauce.

Sprinkle with fresh herbs and spicy chili flakes. Serve!

Succulent chicken thighs basted in fiery peri-peri marinade and grilled to smoky perfection is a fantastic easy, spicy dinner recipe.

honey

olive oil

juice of ½ lemon

salt & pepper

chicken thighs (skin-on)

Combine all the marinade ingredients and mix well.

Spread over the chicken on both sides and allow to marinade for up to 24 hours but at least 1 hour.

Grill in a hot griddle pan with the lemon halves (alternatively cook the chicken on a barbecue) for 7-10 minutes per side then transfer to the oven (pre-heated to 180ºc) and cook for a further 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Squeeze over the grilled lemon juice and serve.

Peri Peri Chicken is chicken marinated in a hot spicy peri peri sauce, which is a sauce based on bird's eye chilis. Marinate the Chicken hours before you plan on roasting and grilling the chicken for dinner.

Easy Peri Peri Chicken Recipe [Copycat]

Chicken Legs

Tablespoons Peri Peri Sauce

Lime

Teaspoon Salt

Teaspoon Black Pepper

Olive Oil (to baste the Chicken)

Start by creating a few random cuts into your chicken, through the skin.

Then add the peri peri sauce, lime juice, salt and black pepper to the chicken and use your hands to marinate and massage the sauce into the chicken.

Leave the Chicken to marinate for as long as possible. If you are in a hurry, keep minimum 2-3 hours to marinate. Best is to keep over night and day.

When you are ready to cook the chicken, preheat your oven to 180 Celsius/ 350 Fahrenheit.

Place the meat into a ceramic baking dish and cover the chicken with the marination. Then sprinkle some olive oil over the chicken.

Roast your chicken for about 30-35 minutes or until the thermometer shows 75 Celsius/ about 170 Fahrenheit. While the chicken is roasting, make sure to baste the meat with olive oil frequently, so that the meat remains nice and juice. I usually like to use the oil and marination mixture which turns into a sauce at the foot of the chicken, to cover my chicken with moisture.

After you have roasted the chicken, keep the peri peri chicken for another 5-8 minutes in the grilled mode in your oven. That way you will get a lovely crust on top of your chicken.

Chicken Piri Piri is a Portuguese spicy barbecue chicken very popular in the Algarve. 

Piri Piri Chicken - Authentic Portuguese Grilled Chicken

chicken (1,3kg)

g room temp butter

thyme

salt

ml extra virgin olive oil

white port wine

salt -

mint

chives

ricotta cheese

70 g greek yoghurt

pepper

Place your chicken on a baking tray, season it with the minced garlic and lemon juice. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Combine the butter and fresh thyme, add it under the skin of the chicken breast, rubbing it from the outside to make sure the butter is well spread. This will add extra flavour to the breasts and make them more moist. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper, then set it aside.

Pre-heat your oven to 240 °C.

Meanwhile, add the piri-piri sauce ingredients to a food processor, blend everything for a couple of minutes. It should look like a smooth paste but not super liquid.

Once the oven is hot, add the seasoned chicken. Cook it for 20 minutes, then brush it with the piri piri sauce, put it back in the oven. Repeat the process one more time.

Continue to roast for another 15 minutes or until the skin achieves a barbecued look. It should be ready when you poke the chicken, and clear juices come out out. It takes approximately 1h15m total (3x 20min + 15min)

For the cooling sauce, finely chop your herbs, combine them with Greek yoghurt and the ricotta. Season it with salt, black pepper, and the olive oil.

Serve your chicken with the sides you prefer. I served mine like the Portuguese do, with a simple salad, French fries and some of the left over piri-piri sauce!

Yummy peri peri marinade is perfect to transform your vegan BBQ seitan to a whole other level!
