Peri Peri is a spicy sauce made from the African bird's eye chili, known for its vibrant heat and flavor. Originating from Portugal and Africa, it is commonly used in marinades, dips, and as a condiment for grilled meats, especially chicken. The sauce often includes ingredients like garlic, lemon, and vinegar, enhancing its tangy profile. The term "Peri Peri" also refers to the chili pepper itself, which is small but packs a punch. This sauce has gained popularity worldwide, particularly in South Africa and among Portuguese cuisine enthusiasts, making it a staple in many households and restaurants.
