PERI PERI CHICKEN YOUTUBE RECIPES

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!
