Peri-Peri sauce, also known as Piri-Piri, is a tangy, spicy condiment originating from Portuguese and African cuisine. This vibrant sauce is traditionally made using African bird's eye chili peppers, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, and a blend of herbs and spices, creating a bold flavor profile that complements meats, vegetables, and seafood. Its fiery heat comes mainly from the chilies, which are rich in capsaicin, a compound with potential anti-inflammatory and metabolism-boosting benefits. Olive oil in the recipe provides healthy fats, while garlic contributes antioxidants. However, some store-bought versions may contain added sugars or high sodium levels, so it’s important to check nutrition labels. Homemade preparations allow for better control of ingredients for a more health-conscious option. Whether as a marinade, dip, or drizzle, Peri-Peri sauce brings a spicy kick and a burst of flavor to culinary creations.
