Chicken Peri Peri is a flavorful dish originating from Portuguese and African cuisine, celebrated for its bold, spicy taste. This dish features marinated chicken that is infused with a Peri Peri sauce made from African Bird’s Eye chili, garlic, lemon, olive oil, and a blend of other spices. Grilled or roasted, it boasts a smoky, fiery flavor that pairs well with sides like rice, salads, or vegetables. Nutritionally, Chicken Peri Peri is rich in protein from the chicken and contains healthy fats from the olive oil. The chili in the sauce may provide metabolism-boosting properties. However, the dish can be high in sodium, depending on the preparation, and the spice level may not be suitable for sensitive stomachs. Opting for a lean cut of chicken and moderating portion sizes helps keep this dish both tasty and balanced for a nutritious meal option.
