I'm going to make Nando's pepper chicken in the Pakistani Kitchen Blog,
and trust me, it's going to be better than Nando's. I'm going to serve it with spicy rice, olives, and coleslaw, and you're going to love it. Without further ado, let's get started.You want to turn the
chicken over, so We're just waiting for the breast side to come down. I'm going to rip right through
this.This backbone can be removed if desired. But I'm simply going to cut it to the chase. You might
need to use a knife, so be prepared. Now that you've done that, simply open it up. Just like that, shove
it down.
Now you don't have to do this. You can just keep the chicken as is, but this will just cook it a little faster. Season with a good pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper that goes under the skin as well. Now leave the chicken in the fridge to dry brine for a few hours. It will add more flavor. Put the pepper marinade in with a small onion and garlic, some fresh lemon zest and a whole lemon without the skin. Now for the chilis Make sure to use it as part of the marinade. A little of this tomato paste gives the dish more depth of flavor. Powdered paprika Oregano or rosemary Extract some of the sugar for sweetness and to balance out the heat. A pinch of salt, a pinch of citric acid distilled vinegar, a light touch of water, finish this off with a good touch of fire. Now blend this until nice and smooth.
Let's take a look. I'm just going to have a little taste now. This marinade is enough for two chickens. I'm going to save some for later use. Now grab yourself a bowl here with a chicken that has a little bit of color.We're going to use it twice, try to get some under the skin as well. Now if you want, you can let this marinate for an hour. Grab a grill and add a touch of oil. This is just to make sure nothing sticks to the grill. Using a kitchen towel, I'm just going to spread that oil around. Make sure the heat is on medium high. Now when the pan is nice and hot, add the chicken breast side down. You want to make sure the heat is on medium high now. Slowly turn the chicken around and admire those gorgeous grilling scars for another two minutes before removing it.
Remove the chicken from the bowl and pour the rest of the marinade on top. As I mentioned before, we're going to use a marinade twice. Grab a baking tray and carefully place the chicken on it. Go ahead and touch the foil on the top to ensure we get a nice color. Now it's ready to go into the oven. Cook this for 15 minutes at 230 degrees Celsius, and then turn the temperature down to 210 degrees Celsius and let it cook for an hour.Let's get cooking. Turn up the heat to around medium high with a good touch
for you. When the oil is nice and hot with your onions, you want to soften them up and get a light brown color. Now with your garlic, touch your water again. You want to cook the rawness of that
garlic now with the tomatoes. You want to cover them for a few minutes. So let's get cooking. Turn up the heat to around medium high with a good touch for you. When the oil is nice and hot in with your onions, you want to soften them up and get a light brown color.
Adding a pinch of salt to the mix makes it even better.Toss those spices in with the water to stop the
rawness from burning. Now give that a mix and bring this to a simmer. Now you want to turn the
heat to low and add a clean kitchen cloth. Check the chicken, oh man, that looks so beautiful. Add some of those juices on top so it stays nice and moist, all right guys, Just turn off the heat,
look at how beautiful they are, just fluff them up a little, finish with some fresh chives and some fresh lemon juice.My deepest apologies to Nando's, but they look far better all right. The chicken is done
here with olives.Finely chop the coriander and chives with a drizzle of olive oil, a dash of harissa,
and a smidgeon of honey.Toss it around All right guys, let's plate this up with some of this coleslaw
of delicious rice and beautiful olives. I'm going to try this. It looks mouthwatering. Let's try some of
this rice first. Bismillah, it's so delicious. It has a bit of a kick to it. Let's try some of these olives.
They are a bit sweet, a bit tangy, a bit spicy. They are now the star of this dish. Our beautiful pear
purple chicken looks really good and delicious.
