Making Nandos style chicken strips and spicy rice - home cooked budget version of a take out meal!

- Hi all. Pranesh wanted to get strips and spicy rice the other day and got to thinking about the price of the much loved take out meal. At R64 per portion if we buy 3 servings it would cost almost R200. So we decided to make our own version. With the vegetables and spices we bought specific for the recipe we came out to about R120 for 3 servings but we were more generous with the chicken and get to keep all the left over spices for another day.
Ingredients
Chicken strips
500g chicken breasts, cut in strips (R40)
1/4 cup melted margarine or butter (R10)
1 tsp crushed ginger and garlic (pantry)
1/2 tsp garlic salt (pantry)
1 tsp chicken spice (pantry)
1 tsp smoked paparika (pantry)
1 tsp cayenne pepper (R17)
Dried mixed herbs (pantry)
nandos wild herb sauce (R35 - we used half)
salt and pepper to season (pantry)
Spicy Rice
1 cup rice, rinsed - feeds 3-4 people (pantry)
1 heaped tbs spice for rice (R17)
1/2 tsp fine salt (pantry)
1/2 green pepper, finely chopped (R10)
1/2 red onion chopped fine (R8)
1/2 cup frozen mixed veg (pantry)
1 tsp paprika and 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 cup melted margarine/butter to stir fry
Serve strips and spicy rice as main meal or spicy rice as a side to other meals.

My pleasure 😊
I enjoyed that meal as well. But was also put off by how expensive it has become. I love the tongs you were using on the chicken. Please let me know where you got them.
Pranesh went to a camera store in Midrand and one of the neighboring stores was a pop up selling imported catering equipment. They were in the Grey Owl center. Not sure if there are still there…
Love this aunty making this and selling at work tomorrow. Added it to my menu
Wow that's good to hear! Do you cook food and sell? Hope your business keeps growing!
The dish looks amazing. Well done Pranesh & mum🥰🤗
Thank you 🙏🏼
Well done ma...will definitely give it a try...my kids favourite ❤
Hope you enjoy. You can make it milder for the kids if that’s how they prefer it
Wow, what a lovely recipe. Definitely going to be making it. Please try to show us how to make the nandos chicken. Nandos chicken is so expensive and taste like boiled chicken. Thanks again for sharing all your recipes 🙏
We will give it a go. I think that the full Nandos chicken is marinated overnight and then flame grilled so we will maybe do it on a braai.
@@GaithreeDeviLuckan thank you ❤️
Wow...absolutely lovely.. many many thanks
Most welcome 😊
Wow well done 👍 I am always doing my own Nandos Spicy Rice at home n we all love it 👌❤️💯

Hi Aunty, do you make a pickle fish? If you can do video of it, that will make me and my mum VERY HAPPY 😊.
We will try one soon. My mom used to make fish pickle but I have not tried it in many years...
@@GaithreeDeviLuckan ok thank you so much, we both love your recipes dearly...
Love Mom's top!
Question: even though the rice is hot, isn't it better to cook out the dry paprika and cayenne pepper spice beforehand? Otherwise you don't get the full flavour?
You could do so with some melted butter. But it may make the rice a little greasy.
My man 🙌 give loves to Ma...
Thanks so much 🙏🏼
Wow good food😊

Hello Sweet Mama & Pranesh 🙏A delicious and easy to make dish, great with chicken and perfect for a family meal.Peri Peri sauce is a truly global recipe. Portuguese explorers brought capsicum frutescens from Brazil back to Europe.
Merchants and colonists then took the malagueta pepper to East Africa, to modern Mozambique. The plants naturalized there and evolved into the African Birds Eye or Peri Peri chillies, on which this sauce is based.Peri peri (piri piri) sauce brings vibrant, piquant taste of Africa to your cooking and this also can be homemade.Ingredients
10 peri peri (African bird's eye) chillis or other hot chillis (dried )
1 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic
1 onion
2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp allspice
1 tsp oregano
2 roasted red peppers (we use bottled ones for convenience)
2 lemons (juice and zest)
1 tbs sugar
100 ml cider vinegar
2 bay leaves
pinch salt
80 ml olive oil
Instructions
Soak the chillis in half a cup of boiling water until the water has cooled. You can leave them soaking overnight if you wish.
Chop the onion and garlic into large pieces.
Heat the one tablespoon of olive oil in a large frying pan or shallow casserole dish. Gently fry the onion and garlic until it is translucent. Then add the herbs and spices (except for the bay leaves). Fry for a couple of minutes longer.
Transfer the fried onions to a blender. Add the soaked peri peri chillis (drained - discard the soaking water), the roasted red peppers, lemons juice and zest, sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Blend until nearly smooth, but still with a little texture.
Return the mixture to the frying pan or casserole. Add the bay leaves, and heat on a low-medium heat until just simmering. Turn down to a very gently simmer.
Cook the mixture for about 20 minutes, until it thickens and has reduced by a half to a third. When it is ready, a wooden spoon or spatula should leave a trace on the bottom of the pan.
Transfer the mixture back to the food processor. Then blitz again, slowly adding the 80ml of olive oil as you do so. It is important to add the oil slowly so the mixture emulsifies so you get a lovely smooth sauce.
Blitz to a smooth paste. The peri peri sauce will take on a vibrant orange-yellow colour. It’s now ready to use. Pour the mixture into a jam jar, and keep in the fridge, where it will last for a week. And now hope Nando`s won`t sue us for this!😀Enjoy your peri peri and next on your list KFC😄.🙏
Thanks so much for this Chota - we will give it a try but if it is too hot then Pranesh won't be able to eat it...
I think you can reverse the chilles ratio towards the red peppers for Pranesh heat tolerance.
Pls share the recipe for spice for rice in pakistan we can't have ready spice
I will get you the recipe for it.
@@GaithreeDeviLuckan so sweet of you ❤ u r very kind person love from pakistan
Were do u get spice for rice
Hi Shaida, it is the normal Robertsons spice for rice.
Jenny please Mom can you show us Nandos chicken livers
Hi Janie, we did a spicy chicken liver recipe. Not quite nandos but nice and spicy as well:
th-cam.com/video/NH2epDeDorA/w-d-xo.html
I have been in Europe for three months and I’m scraping the barrel of my last bottle of nandos that I brought with me. I brought 4. How can I make this dish without the sauce. 😭
Ohhh. Is there not a hot sauce you can try where you are? Maybe we can get Pranesh to work on a chillie sauce recipe and share.
@@GaithreeDeviLuckan I am in Croatia. I have tried about 10 different sauces. I have concluded that there is nothing like nandos. Fortunately I brought my own spices and I can make curry.
Bhainjee your channel is simply awesome PLEASE give me a recipe to make
