TAKE MY SHORTCUT AND USE MY TASTE PORTUGAL SPICY PIRI PIRI SEASONING

Piri Piri Chicken wings are so delicious that you’ll keep making them again and again at every party! I used an air fryer to bake these wings but you can also bake them in the oven at 400 degrees F for about 30 minutes or longer until crispy. Use this sauce to make piri piri chicken too. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 pounds uncooked chicken wings

piri piri sauce

Piri Piri Sauce recipe:

20 fresh birds eye whole peppers (use 2 large red peppers if unavailable)

6 red jalapeno peppers (seed and chop)

6 cloves garlic

juice of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons white vinegar

2 tablespoons paprika

1 tablespoon salt

½ cup olive oil

Preparation:

Place all ingredients into a blender and pulse to a smooth consistency. Place in jars and store in refrigerator until ready to use.

NOTE: I cook down the sauce for about 5 minutes and serve along with the wings for dipping.

Chicken Wings:

Marinate room temperature wings for at least 2 hours or overnight in refrigerator.

Lightly coat air fryer with cooking spray. Place half of wings (shake off marinade) in fryer and lightly spray with cooking spray. Cook at 400 degrees F. for 12-15 minutes until crispy. Cook remaining wings.

You can also bake at 400 degrees F. for about 30 minutes until crispy depending on your oven.

Your family will love this Mexican Lasagna. You’ll love that’s its easy to make and it tastes better the next day!

8 – 10 Burrito shells

Meat filling:

1 pound of ground beef or turkey

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 large onion (minced)

2 cloves garlic (minced)

1/2 cup of jarred roasted red peppers (diced)

1 cup chopped tomatoes

1/2 cup salsa (any flavor)

salt and pepper to taste

Bean filling:

1 32 oz can of black beans

1/2 cup salsa (any flavor))

Layers:

1 (8oz) package shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup sour cream

1 cup salsa (any flavor)

Hot sauce to taste

Cilantro or parsley for garnish

Note: You can also add some cooked rice to the bean layer.

Preparation:

Make meat filling by sauteing the onion and garlic in olive oil until golden. Add the meat and brown. Add salt and pepper. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook for about 10-15 minutes until thickened. Set aside until ready to assemble.

Place the beans in a saucepan and add the salsa. Cook and stir often until the beans thicken. Set aside.

Begin layering the lasagna. First coat the bottom of deep dish with a little sauce. Place 2 or 3 burritos on the bottom followed by 1/3 of the sauce. Spread with 2 oz. of cheese. Add a layer of shells, then the beans. Top the beans with 2 oz. of the cheese and spread a few tablespoons of sour cream and salsa on top. Continue layering followed by a final layer of shells with a little sauce on top. Cover with cheese. Cook for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees F. Note: If you like it spicy add a few drops of hot sauce into each layer.

Cool slightly before cutting so it doesn’t fall apart. Garnish with sour cream, hot sauce and cilantro when serving if desired.

Let cool and store in refrigerator. It tastes better the next day! YUM!!
