In South Africa, peri-peri chicken is a bit of a thing.  


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

Ingredients 

6 chicken thighs skin-on 

3 Tbsp. Mozambique Piri Piri 

2 Tbsp. cooking oil 

2 tsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice 

2 tsp. vinegar

Instruction 

1

Combine Mozambique Piri Piri blend, oil, lemon juice, and vinegar. Whisk until combined. 

2

Place chicken in a large, resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade over chicken and work it around the bag until all pieces of meat are coated in the marinade. 

3

Remove all excess air from the bag, seal it closed, and place in refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour or up to 24 hours. 

4

Grill over medium-high heat or bake in oven at 375 until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Enjoy! ❤️
