Chicken With Peri Peri Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the lime juice, vinegar, paprika, bitters and hot pepper sauce in a glass baking dish.
• Wearing kitchen gloves, split the jalapeno pepper, remove seeds.
• Mash the pepper with the garlic into a smooth paste using a mortar or an electric spice grinder.
• Add the paste to the lime mixture in the baking dish and combine.
• Toss the chicken pieces and swish them in the marinade until they are completely coated. Cover and let marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill or broil until cooked through and burnished, about 20 minutes on each side. Baste frequently with the marinade. If the chicken looks like it is beginning to burn, move it farther away from the heat source.
• Serve hot with chilled orange sections and plenty of napkins.

Steps:

• Remove the chicken's backbone by using a pair of kitchen scissors. Turn it over and flatten it down to spread the chicken out as much as possible.
• Blend together all of the marinade ingredients in a food processor and spread half of it over the chicken.
• Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight.
• Roast in the centre of a preheated oven for 60 minutes at 200°C (400°F), or until the thickest part of the thigh is 75°C. Once the chicken is cooked through, allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
• Simmer the other half of the marinade for 2-3 minutes to make the Peri Peri sauce.
• Use as a dip for your chicken or mix some into mayonnaise or hummus!
• To make Peri Peri Chips, just shake some smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder and white pepper into your chips!
• Enjoy!
