This is a delicious Nando's inspired dish, with homemade Portuguese peri peri sauce coated chicken legs, a minty, creamy pea and butter bean mash, garlic and lemon broccoli, and some charred lemons.The pea and butter bean mash is also an easy way to get more veggies in your diet, and a great alternative to your traditional mashed potatoes - it's quicker and lighter, but just as satisfying.The chicken can be cooked either outside on the grill, or in the oven and under the broiler, so it’s the perfect dish all year round! The peri peri sauce has so much flavour, made from peppers, garlic, lemon, and chilli - I like to use the leftovers with my fried eggs the next day! This is definitely one to try!

Whole Grilled Hot-Honey Lemon Chicken

Cooking a whole grilled chicken is so much easier than you think— promise.In fact, this recipe is not much harder than sheet pan chicken or skillet chicken— two bastions of weeknight ease. A whole, well-seasoned chicken crisps up on the grill until gloriously charred grill marks appear, then it’s flipped and coated in layer after layer of a spicy, tangy, ever-so-sweet hot-honey lemon butter marinade. The result is lacquered, crisp skin, juicy white and dark meat, and plenty of marinade leftover for spooning, drizzling, or dunking.Steps for grilling a whole chickenBefore we get into the nitty gritty details, here is a basic overview of the process:Spatchcock the chicken, then cut it in half through the breastboneSeason the chicken generously with salt, as far in advance as possible (up to 24 hours)Grill the chicken over medium heat, starting skin side down and flipping it over onceBaste with the hot-honey lemon butter marinade every 5 minutesCook until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 160°F-165°F

Coca-cola Chicken Wings

Chicken wings have never been easier or tastier than these coca-cola chicken wings. It might sound strange but the soda actually adds a lovely sweetness to the chicken. Add some Asian flavors like soy sauce and rice wine to balance out the flavors and you have one delicious meal. These wings are also baked and not fried, for an easier cleanup and healthier option. Just brown them on the stovetop and finish them in the oven until the juices run clear and toss them in the coca-cola wing sauce. Go ahead and give these wings a try, you won’t regret it!

The Best Grilled Chicken

I’m not even kidding when I say this is The Best Grilled Chicken! The marinade is what makes it! I’ve been making this marinade for quite a few years now. I love the balsamic vinegar in this recipe. Once the chicken hits the grill, the balsamic vinegar caramelizes giving the chicken a nice sweet crispy outside.This recipe can’t get any easier! First, chopped rosemary, minced garlic, dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar are mixed in a bowl with some good quality olive oil. Second, chicken breasts are submerged in the marinade for up to 8 hours so they soak up all the wonderful flavors. Lastly, once the grill is hot and ready to go, the marinated chicken is grilled to perfection! Serve with a potato salad, some greens, and you have the perfect summer meal!

Coconut Chicken Tenders With Mango Dipping Sauce

Every summer I look forward to all of the fresh seafood, especially Coconut Shrimp with Mango Sauce. This summer instead of going out to eat, we have been staying in. Sure, we could have made my favorite summer dish but instead we decided to make these Coconut Chicken Tenders with Mango Dipping Sauce as it would be a crowd pleaser. Baffling to me, not everyone is a shrimp person.

Chicken Laksa Pot Pie

This recipe came about after a busy day at work when I really didn’t want to spend a long time preparing dinner.I opened my fridge to see what I can whip together, I saw some chicken mince, carrots, potatoes and a jar of laksa paste. I also noticed some frozen puff pastry in the freezer.I had made a shortcut chicken curry pot pie before, so I thought Laksa is very similar in flavour to curry, why don’t i make a laksa chicken pot pie?And it works! This pie is super easy and quick to put together and feels a lot lighter than your typical bowl of laksa noodles.Laksa, if you don’t know is a spicy noodle soup popular in Southeast Asia. Laksa consists of thick wheat noodles or rice vermicelli with chicken, prawn or fish, served in spicy soup based on either rich and spicy curry coconut milk or on sour asam. It is very delicious.This of course do not compare to an actual bowl of laksa noodles but it’s good for when you want that rich, coconut, spicy taste but don’t really want that heavy, carb overload afterwards.You can use whatever vegetables or meat you have in your fridge, the measurements are also quite fluid, please try and adjust seasonings to your taste as different laksa paste have different strengths. You can buy laksa paste at Asian Grocery Stores. I recommend this oneDo let me know if you try it by tagging @dessertsforlunch on instagram.
