Piri Piri Chicken

June 26, 2018 Leave a Comment

Piri Piri Chicken

Serves 2

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 Skinless, boneless chicken thigh fillets
1 Small fresh red chili, deseeded and finely chopped
1 Clove garlic, crushed
½ tsp Dried oregano
1 Tsp Smoked paprika
3 Tsp Olive oil
1 Tbsp Freshly squeezed lemon juice
Freshly Ground Black pepper (taste)
1 Red pepper, deseeded and cut into small chunks
1 Red onion, sliced or cut into thin wedges

 

Instructions

Score a couple of deep slashes in each chicken thigh using a sharp knife. Combine red chili, garlic (if using), oregano, smoked paprika, 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, the lemon juice and black pepper in a bowl. Add chicken thighs; turn to coat all over. Cover; leave to marinate in a cool place for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350ºF/175ºC. Put red pepper and red onion into a small, non-stick roasting tin; add remaining olive oil and toss to coat. Add chicken thighs to roasting pan, nestling them among vegetables.

Roast in the oven for 30–40 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked (165⁰ F/74⁰ C – internal temperature) and piping hot, stirring vegetables and turning chicken thighs over about halfway through cooking.

Serve immediately with crusty bread or flatbreads and a mixed-leaf salad.
