About Slow cooked piri piri chicken

Slow Cooked Piri Piri Chicken is a flavorful dish inspired by Portuguese and African cuisine, showcasing the vibrant spices of the Piri Piri pepper. This recipe features tender chicken marinated in a blend of citrus juices, garlic, paprika, oregano, and chili, then slow-cooked for maximum juiciness and depth of flavor. Accompanied by healthy additions like bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes, it offers a rich source of lean protein and essential vitamins. The slow cooking method locks in nutrients while enhancing taste without excessive fats or oils. While it’s moderately spicy, you can adjust the heat level to your preference. Be mindful of sodium levels, as marinades may contain added salt. Served with a side of whole grains or leafy greens, this dish makes a balanced and satisfying meal that celebrates bold traditions and wholesome ingredients.
