Piri Piri Chicken Quick Stir Fry Version Recipes

PIRI PIRI CHICKEN

Steps:

• Use rubber gloves to mince the chiles and place into a mixing bowl. Add cilantro, garlic, vegetable oil, vinegar, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix piri piri sauce well.
• Place chicken breasts and legs into a resealable plastic bag. Pour in piri piri sauce, seal the bag, and shake gently to completely cover chicken. Put the bag in the refrigerator to marinate at least 4 hours.
• Remove bag from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking to allow chicken to come to room temperature.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove chicken from the bag; discard bag and cilantro. Cook chicken on the preheated grill, rotating as necessary to cook evenly, until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 25 minutes.

• Melt butter in small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add cilantro and garlic; cook until garlic begins to brown, about 2 minutes. Add piri-piri sauce and lemon juice. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 2 minutes. DO AHEAD: Glaze can be made up to 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm before using.
• For chicken:
• Finely chop cilantro, ginger, shallot, and garlic in processor. Add piri-piri sauce, 1/4 cup oil, lemon juice, coarse salt, and pepper; process marinade to blend.
• Place chicken, skin side up, on work surface. Using palm of hand, press on breastbone to flatten chicken. Tuck wing tips under. Pour half of marinade into 11x7x2-inch glass baking dish. Open chicken like book; place skin side down in single layer in dish. Pour remaining marinade over. Cover; chill at least 4 hours or overnight, turning chicken occasionally.
• Remove top rack from barbecue. Prepare barbecue (medium heat). If using 2-burner gas grill, light 1 burner. If using 3-burner gas grill, do not light center burner. If using charcoal grill, light briquettes in chimney and pour onto 1 side of lower grill rack. Place disposable aluminum pan on unlit part of grill. Place upper grill rack on barbecue; brush with oil.
• Remove chicken from marinade. Arrange skin side up on grill rack above drip pan. Cover barbecue; grill until skin is browned and instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, turning often, about 40 minutes. Transfer to platter. Pour warm glaze over.

PIRI-PIRI CHICKEN WITH SMASHED SWEET POTATOES & BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Toss the sweet potatoes with a generous drizzle of oil and some seasoning, and tip into a very large roasting tin. Push the potatoes to one end of the tin, then, in the other end, toss the chicken with the onions, spice mix, a drizzle of oil and some seasoning. Roast for 40 mins, stirring everything halfway through. Add the broccoli to the tin, drizzle with a little oil and season, then roast for 10-15 mins more.
• Remove the chicken, onions and broccoli from the tin. Roughly mash the potatoes using a fork, making sure you incorporate all the chicken juices and spices from the pan. Spread the mash over the base of the tin, then top with the broccoli, chicken and onions and serve from the tin in the middle of the table.

PIRI-PIRI CHICKEN

Steps:

• To make the marinade, tip the dried chillies and the vinegar into a pan and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and leave the chillies to soak until the vinegar is cold. Put the red chillies, garlic, soaked dried chillies and vinegar in a food processor and blitz. Add the smoked paprika, oregano, thyme, sugar, a pinch of salt and the lemon juice. Blitz again to a paste and set aside.
• Sit the chicken in a shallow dish and use a small knife to score all over with cuts 1cm deep. Make sure you do the legs and the underside. Tip the marinade over the chicken and massage into the cuts. Cover and chill for at least 4 hrs, but overnight would be better.
• When you're ready to cook, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Roast the chicken for 1 hr, then turn the heat up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and cook for a further 30-35 mins until a crust has formed on the outside of the chicken.
• Remove from the oven and leave to rest for 30 mins. Serve with homemade wedges or jacket potatoes, coleslaw, some buttered corn cobs and chilli & mint peas.

PIRI PIRI CHICKEN (QUICK STIR FRY VERSION)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• 1. Make a couple of slits on the thickest part of the chicken.
• 2. Stuff the garlic clove in the slit on the chicken, season with salt and rum some smoked paprika on the chicken. Set aside.
• 3. Heat a griddle pan - sear the chicken on both sides on a hot griddle.
• 4. The garlic should be a little softened by this, so remove it from the slit in the chicken. Add the garlic to the remaining sauce ingredients and blitz in a blender until you have a thick sauce.
• 5. Cook the peppers on the same griddle pan slightly, simply to soften them a bit.
• 6. Take a rectangular pan, spread the peppers on the bottom followed by the chicken and pour the sauce on top. Cook in a preheated hot oven for 25-30 minutes.
• SLOW COOKER METHOD:.
• This is a perfect dish for the slow cooker.
• Combine the sauce ingredients and the peppers, onions in the crockpot and place the chicken pieces on top. Let them cook on high for 2 hours and then reduce to medium for a further 4-5 hours. It would not be necessary to blitz the ingredients for the sauce as it will all be nice and soft, with lots of flavours. I would add a little bit more white wine in there - say 1/2 cup and also add 1/2 cup of chicken stock which helps keep things moist in the crockpot.
• STIR FRY VERSION (shown in pic above):.
• Due to lack of time, I had to make a stir fry version at the class, as shown in the pic above. I didn't make a separate sauce, I just cooked everything together in one pan and it came out lovely. I felt it needed the sauce, to get the real flavour, but we didn't have enough time to make the sauce.
• VARIATION:.
• If stuck for time and need to make this in a hurry, cut the chicken into 1 inch cubes. Saute the onions and chicken in a pan, when the onions have softened a bit and the chicken starts to change colour, add the peppers and garlic (mince first). Stir in all the sauce ingredients, cover and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes on low heat. Serve on a bed of rice or cous cous salad. (For guilty pleasure, roast potatoes make this the ultimate comfort food in the winter months!).
