I think chicken is a perfect vehicle for spices. I like to experiment with spices so I look for things that will give me a taste of how the rest of the world enjoys their food. A couple of years ago I found a Peri-peri spice mix in the import section of our local grocery store so I bought some to try it out.

It is spicy and the heat level can be too much for someone who doesn't enjoy a good burn after the burst of chili flavor. My family is a mix of high heat lovers and mild heat lovers so I found that a couple of us wanted less heat while the others enjoyed it. I grilled the chicken over coals and the combination of spice and char makes a delicious flavor profile. I had totally forgotten about this spice blend. Thanks for the reminder.
