About Peri peri chicken
Peri Peri Chicken is a spicy, flavorful dish originating from Africa, particularly Mozambique, and popularized by Portuguese cuisine. The star of this dish is the Peri Peri sauce, made from African Bird’s Eye chili, garlic, lemon, vinegar, and a blend of spices. The chicken is typically marinated in the sauce, then grilled or roasted, creating a juicy, smoky flavor with a fiery kick. Nutritionally, Peri Peri Chicken is high in protein, beneficial for muscle repair and energy, while the chilies provide a boost of antioxidants and a metabolism boost. Grilling or roasting minimizes unhealthy fats, making it a leaner option. However, sodium and added sugars in certain sauces can be less ideal, depending on preparation. Pairing it with nutrient-rich sides like salads or steamed vegetables enhances the health profile of this vibrant, globally adored dish.
