Homemade pari pari chicken

This peri peri chicken recipe features a great spicy marinade for an African dish that's great for a barbecue. Nice with salad and fries, but I like adding it to a pita with salad and garlic Greek yogurt (3/4 cup Greek yogurt and 3 cloves of crushed garlic with finely chopped chives). Don't go on a date, though; it gives you wicked garlic breath!

Ingredients
1 cup fresh lemon juice

¼ cup paprika

2 tablespoons hot chili powder

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh ginger

1 ½ teaspoons salt

4 bone-in chicken breast halves
Directions
Stir together lemon juice, paprika, chili powder, garlic, ginger, and salt in a large bowl until well combined. Add chicken; rub until well coated and marinate in the refrigerator for 3 hours.
Preheat a grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grates.

Place chicken onto the preheated grill; discard marinade. Cook, turning occasionally, until skins are slightly charred and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Nutrition Facts
