Nearly Nandos Chicken
We love Nandos chicken here but actually going to a Nandos can be a bit of a faff. Firstly, there isn’t one terribly locally and secondly, we hate queueing! We found this recipe on the internet and absolutely love it. It isn’t quite Nandos but we think it’s pretty close!

Servings: 2 people
Calories: 425kcal
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 4 cloves Garlic finely grated
- 2 Limes juiced
- 2 tsp Oregano
- 2 tsp Paprika
- 2 tsp Chilli Flakes (no more, it'll be too hot!)
- 2 Chicken Breasts
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl big enough to put the chicken breasts into
- Season with a little salt and pepper
- Bung in the chicken, give it a good mix to ensure it is well covered and then cover the bowl with clingfilm
- Leave for at least 8 hours, 24 hours is better
- Get the chicken out and bring it to room temperature before cooking
- The chicken is best cooked on the barbecue but can be cooked on a griddle or even on the grill. Cook for around 7 minutes per side but check the chicken is properly cooked before serving
