Peri-Peri Style Chicken Burgers

Another delicious fakeaway recipe! My peri-peri style chicken burgers put a spicy twist on the classic chicken burger. Just imagine the taste of juicy marinated chicken breast fillets with crisp, tangy coleslaw and a splash of your favourite hot sauce on a soft bread roll – heaven! Great for entertaining or devouring as a fun family meal.

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken in a medium-sized bowl along with the marinade ingredients. Use your hands to coat.

    This marinade is a winner and so much better than store bought. Cooked it on our barbecue and the meat stayed nice and juicy. Another winner.
