Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 chicken legs
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound red chilies chopped (- African Bird's Eye peppers are traditional, but you can sub with red peppers available to you)
4 cloves garlic chopped
1 teaspoon smoked paprika (you can sub in other chili powders)
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup chopped basil
1/2 cup olive oil or vegetable oil
Juice from 1 lemon
Salt to taste
FOR SERVING: Chopped parsley, spicy chili flakes

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken legs dry and rub them down with the paprika, garlic, and salt and pepper. Cover and set aside.
  • Heat your oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the peri peri sauce, add the peppers, garlic, paprika, cilantro and basil to a food processor. Process until well mixed.
  • Drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to process until the mixture thickens up.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and adjust for salt.
  • Use half of the peri peri sauce to cover the chicken. Toss them together to get the chicken legs nicely coated. You can cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour at this point if you'd like more developed flavor.
  • FOR BAKING: Bake the chicken for 35-40 minutes, or until they are nicely cooked through. They should measure 165 degrees F internally.
  • FOR GRILLING: Fire up the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates. Grill the chicken legs for about 35-40 minutes, turning them every 5 minutes to keep from burning, until they are cooked through. They should measure 165 degrees F internally.
  • Remove from the oven and toss in the remaining peri peri sauce.
  • Sprinkle with fresh herbs and spicy chili flakes. Serve!
