I love baked chicken in any shape and form and this Low Fodmap Peri Peri Chicken has quickly made it to the top of the list of my favourites.
I really like this juicy Portuguese-inspired thigh fillets marinated in a tangy and slightly spicy mixture. It reminds me of the chicken I used to eat in Portugal, even though that used to be cooked on charcoal. Oh, how I wish I could do that too!
This Low Fodmap Peri Peri Chicken is a very easy recipe that can be whipped up in a few minutes and then all you have to do is bake it. The only thing I would recommend is to marinate the chicken overnight so that all the flavours can get nicely absorbed into the meat.
If you don’t need to follow the low fodmap diet, simply use regular extra virgin olive oil and 2 big cloves of garlic, crushed, instead of the garlic infused olive oil.
Serve this chicken with a simple salad, like my Italian Salad and some lemon wedges/slices for a complete meal and extra tanginess.
