Frequently Asked Questions
What can I use as a substitute for piri piri sauce?
If you don't have piri piri sauce, you can substitute it with a combination of hot sauce, paprika, and a squeeze of lemon juice for a similar flavor profile. Alternatively, you can use sriracha or any other hot sauce that you prefer.
How should I store leftover barbequed chicken?
Leftover barbequed chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you want to keep it longer, you can freeze it for up to 3 months. Be sure to wrap it tightly to prevent freezer burn.
What if my chicken is not cooked evenly?
If your chicken is not cooking evenly, it could be due to the grilling temperature or the size of the pieces. Make sure to cook on medium heat and avoid direct flames. You can also turn the chicken pieces frequently to promote even cooking and use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for safety.
