Apparently I have been living in a dark, deep cave for years and never heard of peri peri (or piri piri) sauce. Until recently, that is, when I saw an old episode of Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations where he devoured some peri peri chicken in Mozambique. He said it was great, but oh did it burn. Sounded good to me so I found a jar of peri peri sauce at Jungle Jim’s grocery store, and proceeded to make Peri-Peri wings that I then lightly covered in the sour, vinegary, slightly sweet and definitely spicy sauce.
Great Flavor And Heat
I found the peri peri sauce to be quite addicting. Yeah, it’s a bit spicy but it’s really not over-the-top hot in my opinion. It brings a nice earthy pepper to these Peri-Peri wings. I can definitely see myself roasting an entire chicken and covering it in peri peri. That’d make for some mighty good eats. With a kick.
RIP Anthony.
Also try my raspberry chipotle wings.
