A yummy marinade for chicken, hot and spicy with a twist of lemon at the end to freshen it up. Best served with home made potato wedges (seasoned well with paprika and salt) and some peri peri sauce (nando's brand is my fave).
1/2 lemon zest and juice
1 red or green chilli, with seeds if you can handle it
2 tbs smoked paprika
A good slug of olive oil
5 cloves garlic sliced finely
2 breasts of chicken- cut into bite sized pieces
Fresh coriander and parsley leaves
It's as simple as combining all ingredients in a bowl and covering for 1-2 hours. You dont want to leave the marinade on too long as the acid in the lemon juice can start to 'cook' the chicken. Pan fry on a hot barbeque or fry pan until charring. Stir through fresh herbs at the last minute! Feel the burn...
