Ingredients:

–         1kg boneless chicken thighs

–         2 tsp Nando’s Peri-Peri Salt

–         2 tbsp fresh oregano (or 2tsp dried)

–         2 garlic cloves, crushed

–         2 tbsp olive oil

–         270g Nando’s Smokey Portuguese BBQ Peri-Peri Chicken Marinade

–         Cocktail or small bamboo sticks

1.      Slash chicken thighs several times. Place in a shallow dish and sprinkle over the peri-peri salt.

2.      Add the oregano, garlic and olive oil. Secure each chicken thigh into a neat shape with a couple of cocktail sticks or small bamboo sticks.

3.      Pour over the peri-peri marinade. Cover, chill and marinate for a couple of hours, to give a good flavour.

4.      Cook over a hot grill for 20 mins, turning as needed, until the chicken begins to char and the juices run clear when a sharp knife is inserted.

OUR TIP:  Buy a large disposable BBQ – it gives the food a lovely smoky flavour with none of the hard work at the end as you just throw it away. Gas barbecues really don’t give the flavour.
