MOLHO DE PIRI-PIRI (PORTUGUESE PERI-PERI MARINADE SAUCE)
This spicy hot marinade can be used on any meat you grill - chicken, beef, shrimp or prawns (I've even tried it with fish!).. 'Aging' the marinade by storing it in an airtight container and refrigerated for a few days allows the flavour to intensify. A word of caution: habanero chillies are HOT, so please handle them with care! Use gloves or oil your hands before touching them so that the chilli 'oil' does not penetrate into the pores of your skin. The serving size is a guess-timate - this 1 batch of marinade is enough to marinate 6-8 chicken drumsticks or about 30 shrimps or prawns.
