Name: Piri-piri chicken and slaw
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 40 min
Total time: 60 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Portuguese
Ingredients: 1.5kg Chicken; 3 chopped Red Chilli; 2 cloves Garlic; 1 tsp Ginger; 1 tsp Dried Oregano; 1 tsp Coriander; 1 tsp Paprika; 2 tbs Red Wine Vinegar; 2 tbs Oil; 1 sliced Red Onions; 2 Carrots; 1 Beetroot; 4 leaves Cabbage; 2 tbs Mayonnaise; 2 tbs Greek Yogurt; 2 tbs Red Wine Vinegar; 1 tsp Cumin Seeds

This fiery, aromatic Piri-piri chicken is marinated in a bold blend of crushed red chili, garlic, ginger, and warm spices, then grilled to smoky perfection. The accompanying slaw—crisp red onions and cabbage tossed in a tangy red wine vinegar dressing—cuts through the heat with bright, refreshing crunch. The result is a dish that balances heat, acidity, and herbal depth in every bite, offering a taste of Portugal’s coastal charms without leaving the kitchen. Worth the hour-long marinade for its layered, restaurant-worthy flavors.
