The chicken was quite tasty, and my boys gave it thumbs up. Give it a go :)
1 chicken, skin removed and cut into 8 pcs then make 2-3 slits on each piece
Sauce:
2 to 6 birds-eye red chillies
1 big red capsicum
1 lemon, cut into quarters
2 tbsp paprika powder
2 tsp salt
1 tbsp oregano
2 tsp red chilli powder
1/2 cup oil
5 cloves of garlic
2 tbsp vinegar
1 tsp black pepper
1 . Blend ingredients for sauce. Speed 8-10, 10 secs. Repeat till fine.
2 . Add sauce to chicken pieces. Marinade overnight.
3 . Spray airfryer basket with oil. Add chicken pieces into drawer. Start at 200C for approx 8 mins. Flip, baste with marinade sauce. Lower temp to 160C, 4 mins. Flip, if necessary. Continue at 160C or higher, for another 4 mins.
Tips:
I cooked in 2 batches to ensure that the pieces were laid in a layer, rather than overlapping.
Breast was quite dry, and required a shorter cooking time. I just removed those pieces first, and continued with the rest.

If you use chicken wings, 1/3 of the marinade is sufficient. Freeze the rest. Air fry nibbles (middle section of wings) at 200° 12 mins, flip midway.
Drummets. 200° 6 mins, flip then 160° 10 mins. 180° 5 mins. I would add 2 more mins 200° if they are not brown enough.

Yes, no problem. The base is normal metal. Not coated with non-stick.
-
Yum, have printed to make. :)
-
Bee is the oregano fresh or dried please? :)
-
Julie, I used dried oregano
-
Thanks Bee :)
-
Made this tonight. It was delicious! Thanks BZB for sharing the recipe.
-
Glad you enjoyed the Peri Peri Chicken, Courton :)
-
Made this again for dinner. This time with a longer marinade time - 3 days in the freezer. And it came out even better! The whole family said it was like Nando's
Woohoooooooo! :) :D
-
Sounds interesting Jose. If you add, hope you update us :)

This is the AF now. DH has just cooked a batch of his special chilli chicken wings. Boy did it smoke. Not quite enough to set the alarm off though. I reduced the amount of chilli in the chicken. It will be interesting to see how it goes.
-
How did it go, cookie?
-
BZB do u add the lemons to the sauce ?
-
I did Uni!
Sorry I forgot to come back on. We all loved it. Next time I will add a bit more chilli as I didn't make it hot enough. I would usually only serve it with rice but last night I had some almost dead vegetables in the fridge, so they got used up too. I'll definitely make it again.

Yay! 😄😃😀😊
-
Looks delicious Cookie,love your plate too 8)
-
Did you steam the vege, cookie? How long did you steam?
-
The veggies were done for 20-25 minutes I think BZB. Except the corn it was about 15 minutes.
-
Cookie, have u tried corn in AF? Very, very nice 😋
-
Cookie did you use bone in pieces of chicken?
-
I used one thigh for DH which I cooked a little longer and DD and I had a breast that I had cut into 3 pieces so that it wasn't so thick.
No BZB I haven't tried corn yet. I will have to do so.
Thanks for the comment re the plate CC. It is our everyday set. I bought it over 33 years ago. (Before children). I am wishing for some more to break so that I can use some of the other sets for everyday use. :-X

I'd love a couple to nibble on right now BZB.
-
What were the nibbles you mentioned in those times BZB?
-
The middle part of the wings, Judy 😃 That's what my mum in law calls them 😄
-
Gotchya, I did wonder if that's what they were. Thanks BZB.
-
I've added the wings timing to the recipe, Judy 😃
