Piri Piri Pork Recipes

ROAST PORK WITH PIRI PIRI

Steps:

• Place all ingredients except pork in food processor and process to a paste. Rub meat with paste and marinate overnight.
• Place pork in 350 degree oven for 45 minutes per pound.
• Serve.

PIRI PIRI SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all of the ingredients except the garlic in a saucepan over high heat. Cook, stirring, for 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic, remove from heat, and allow to cool to room temperature. When the mixture is cool, pour into the bowl of a food processor and pulse several times until smooth. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh strainer. Pour the sauce into a glass container and cover. Let sit for 7 days before using.

PIRI PIRI CHICKEN

Steps:

• Use rubber gloves to mince the chiles and place into a mixing bowl. Add cilantro, garlic, vegetable oil, vinegar, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix piri piri sauce well.
• Place chicken breasts and legs into a resealable plastic bag. Pour in piri piri sauce, seal the bag, and shake gently to completely cover chicken. Put the bag in the refrigerator to marinate at least 4 hours.
• Remove bag from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking to allow chicken to come to room temperature.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove chicken from the bag; discard bag and cilantro. Cook chicken on the preheated grill, rotating as necessary to cook evenly, until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 25 minutes.

PIRI PIRI PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas 4. Seal the pork in a frying pan, then place in a large oven tray sprayed with Fry Light
• Roughly chop your vegetables (if using frozen there’s no need).
• Boil the kettle and place the canned tomatoes, passata, piri piri seasoning, mixed herbs, salt and pepper and the stock cubes into a large jug. Add approximately 50ml of boiling water and stir until the stock cubes have dissolved.
• Place the vegetables over the pork in the tray, and then pour over the seasoned tomato mixture. Place in the oven for around 25-30 minutes minutes or until the pork and vegetables are thoroughly cooked.

EASY PIRI-PIRI PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Tip all the ingredients except the pork into a small blender or mini chopper, season with salt and blitz until smooth. Sit the pork in a casserole dish and pour over the tomato mixture. Swill the blender out with 200ml water and pour that over too. Leave for at least 1 hr to marinate at room temperature or cover and chill overnight.
• Heat the oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3½. Cover the pork with foil and cook in the oven for 2 hrs. Remove from the oven to check - if the sauce is drying out, add a splash more water. Cover again and put back in the oven for another hour or until tender.
• Shred the meat into the sauce with two forks, discarding any big chunks of fat. Check for seasoning, adding a pinch more salt and chilli flakes, if you prefer more heat. Can now be frozen for up to three months. Defrost fully and reheat in a pan over a low heat, with a splash more water if needed. Serve in buns, on top of jacket potatoes or in tacos.
