- Marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours, or overnight if possible, to allow the flavors to permeate the meat fully.
- If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the number of red hot chili peppers or remove the seeds before blending.
- Ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to guarantee it is thoroughly cooked and safe to eat.
- Baste the chicken with the marinate mixture occasionally during cooking to keep it moist and enhance the flavor.
- For a crispier skin, roast the chicken uncovered in the last 20 minutes of cooking time.
- Pair the dish with a cooling dip, like yogurt or sour cream, to complement the spiciness of the Piri Piri Chicken.
