with a side of steakhouse-style chips

Ingredients

  • 8-10 chicken drumsticks
  • 3-4 large potatoes

Peri-peri sauce

  • 3-6 hot red chillies, deseeded and finely chopped
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) olive oil
  • 4 Tbsp (60ml) white-wine vinegar
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 Tbsp (30ml) tomato purée
  • 1 cup (250ml) water

Method

  • Preheat oven to 200°C.
  • To make the peri-peri sauce, put the chillies, olive oil, white wine vinegar, garlic, tomato purée, and water into a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce thickens.
  • Crisp the skin of drumsticks in a pan over the stove. Place the drumsticks into an oven dish and cover with the piri-piri sauce. Cook in the oven for about 30 to 45 minutes until sticky.
  • Cut the potatoes lengthwise into 1cm-thick slices. Then cut 2cm-wide strips along the length to form a rectangular-style chip. Fry the chips in oil until golden brown.
  • Serve the warm chips with the chicken drumsticks.
