Peri Peri Chicken
For best results, let this marinate overnight. The longer you let the chicken marinate, the more flavorful, tender, and succulent the meat will be.

More About This Recipe
Try saving any leftover marinade and use it to baste the chicken. Try adding some light beer or wine to the marinade to turn it into a basting liquid. Be sure to bring the marinade to a full boil once it has come in contact with raw chicken to avoid cross contamination.
Excellent spice! I used chicken breasts and then sauteed in avocado oil. Served with rice. Spice is great, not overpowering.
We made this recipe this weekend and it was fantastic. We cooked it in our air fryer at 350 for 15 minutes, turned it over for another 5 minutes and it was perfect. Serviced on a bed or quinoa and a lemon vinaigrette romaine salad with kiwi slices, spring onions and avocado to offset the spiciness of the chicken really worked. This will become a go-to marinade our our household!
