NANDOโS PERi-PERi South African Grilled Chicken Review ๐๐ฅ
๐ Multiple chain locations available Strong charcoal-grilled flavor ๐๐ฅ โ since they use frozen chicken, itโs not super juicy, but the PERi-PERi spice brings a fresh kick ๐ถ๏ธโจ and the open-fire grilling is seriously aromatic! ใPERi-PERi WingsใNot recommended ๐ Small pieces tend to get burnt and bitter ๐ฅต, meat turns dry. This grilling method works better with larger cuts. ใยผ LegใRecommended ๐ Tried it as takeout โ the whole leg retains more juice thanks to its fat content ๐ฆ๐. Best part โ comes with a full bone-in piece :) Less noticeable dryness or burnt taste compared to wings. ใChicken LiverใRecommended ๐ Fully cooked, coated in sauce so itโs not dry, and hard to burn ๐. Well-marinated + a hint of charcoal flavor ๐ง๐ฅ. Even plain, itโs fragrant and rich in liver taste! ใChicken Thighsใ Note: Machine-deboned ๐ฆด. Skin is nice, but meat lacks springiness. About Flavor Levels: โข Mango Lime ๐ฅญ๐: Tastes like mango juice โ we found it too sweet. Good for sweet-tooth folks. โข (New) Paradise ๐: Fruity, tangy, well-balanced โ pretty nice! โข Medium ๐ถ๏ธ: Not spicy โ a safe bet if youโre unsure. โข Other sauces available for dipping โ lots of choices! ๐งด Rating System Used: ๐ Worth a try ๐๐ Pretty good, has merits ๐๐๐ Recommended, hard to replace ๐๐๐๐ Highly recommended, worth revisiting ๐๐๐๐๐ Must-try/Perfect, excellent experience โ Questionable / Not recommended ๐ OK โก๏ธ Avoid *Reviews are updated based on repeat visits.
