Ingredients
1.1 kg chicken drumsticks & thighs on the bone
1 tsp paprika
1 tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp SIDS CRAZY LEMON
½ cup home made Piri Piri Sauce
3 tbsp rice bran oil
Directions
Take the chicken drumsticks & thighs in a clean dry bowl. I have used skinless chicken pieces. You may also use chicken pieces with skin.
Slash each piece of the chicken diagonally a few times. (2-3 slashes each piece depending on their sizes)
Add SIDS CRAZY LEMON, paprika & lemon juice to the chicken pieces and give them a good rub.
Add piri piri sauce and rub well so that the chicken pieces are well coated with the marinade.
Cover the bowl with a cling film and pop in the fridge. Marinate chicken for at least 3-4 hours. You may also leave it over night.
Over medium heat, set a cast iron frypan. Brush with oil and arrange the chicken pieces, shaking off the excess marinade, without over crowding. Cook them rotating side to side after few minutes until fully cooked. It should take you about 30 minutes approximately. Brush them with oil or drizzle oil on the skillet while cooking the chicken.
Serve hot. Enjoy. You may garnish it with more peri peri sauce or use the left over sauce if any as a dip. It tastes fabulous.
