Piri piri chicken with rice

INGREDIENTS

2 chicken breasts sliced into goujon pieces (or 2 halves of a chicken)

2 red onions and 1 carrot thinly sliced

mixed fresh peppers (red yellow, orange, which ever you prefer) thinly sliced

handful green beans/french beans and broccoli finely sliced

4 large sliced tomatoes (for serving)

2 rice measuring cups short or long grain rice

FOR THE PIRI PIRI MARINADE

5 cloves, garlic crushed

3 red chillies (as hot as you dare!)

1 tsp ginger, grated or a tsp of ready minced ginger

50 ml vegetable oil

25 ml white or red wine vinegar

3 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp tabasco (or more if you want it hot!)

1 tbsp smoked paprika

1 tbsp sweet paprika

3 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp caster sugar (optional)

2 tbsp lime/lemon juice

HOW TO MAKE

Put the piri piri marinade into a bowl. Add chicken and leave to marinade for at least an hour.

At this point make coconut ginger rice or plain long grain rice in your rice cooker.

Take 2 tbsp of the piri piri infused oil and heat in a pan and cook the onion for 5 minutes.

Add the marinaded chicken into the pan.

5 minutes before the chicken is ready, add the sliced veg to the pan and cook until soft.

Serve with delicious coconut ginger rice which goes perfectly with the spicy piri piri flavours or plain long grain (or even short grain) rice if you prefer.
