Ingredients

Peri Peri Sauce

2 red peppers, sliced into large pieces

2 red onions, peeled and chopped into large chunks

1/2 c. oil divided

1 t. paprika

1 t. smoked paprika

2 t. cayenne

1 1/2 t. salt

4 cloved garlic peeled

2 red serrano chilis, deseeded and halved

10 dried african bird's eye chilis

1/4 t. white pepper

zest and juice of 1 lemon

1/4 t. dried rosemary

4 T. red wine vinegar

Chicken

1 medium chicken (3-5 lb.) spatchcocked

1/2 t. black pepper

Steps

Preheat the oven to 350F (fan).

Place the peppers and red onion on a baking tray. Drizzle on 2 T. of oil. Sprinkle on the paprika, smoked paprika, cayenne, and 1 t. of the salt and toss together. Place in the oven for 20 mins.

Add the garlic and serrano chilis and toss together again, then place in oven for a further 10 mins.

Remove from the oven and transfer to a blender with all the tray juices. Add the dried chilis, white pepper, lemon zest and juice, and the dried rosemary. Blend until smooth. Add the remaining vegetable oil and the red wine vinegar and blend again.

Now spatchcock the chicken. Once you've finished, turn the chicken over and press it down onto the baking tray to flatten the chicken. Pour one third of the sauce onto the chicken and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 t. of salt and the black pepper.

Place in the oven for 45 mins. After 45 mins., baste the chicken and spoon over 2 T. more of the sauce. Place back in the oven for another 10-15 mins, until the chicken is cooked through.

Remove from the oven and rest for 10 mins. Serve with the remaining sauce.
