For the peri-peri sauce:
- 2 red chillies, roughly chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
- 1 T sweet paprika
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ cup red wine vinegar
- 1 t dried oregano

- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 large free-range chicken
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 8 red chillies
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Blend the ingredients for the peri-peri sauce.
Season the chicken and place in a roasting pan with the chillies. Pour ¼ of the peri-peri sauce over the chicken.

Cut the chicken into portions and serve with the charred chillies for some extra heat.
