About the Recipe
Fiery, zesty, and full of attitude — this peri peri chicken is a real showstopper. Marinated in my homemade peri peri spice mix, it’s bursting with punchy flavours of chilli, garlic, and citrus. Whether you’re roasting, grilling, or barbecuing, the result is juicy, spicy chicken with a deliciously charred finish. Serve it with crispy potatoes, slaw, or a simple salad — and don’t forget the napkins!
