Piri-piri chicken is a spicy dish with roots in both Africa and Portugal. The dish was created in Angola and Mozambique when Portuguese settlers arrived with chile peppers (known as piri-piri in Swahili).
SkyProtonFood “Frango no churrasco com piri piri” Very common and tasty🤤😋 so much that was a big hit in Spain ✌🏼 (The typical Portuguese way) Cheers from Portugal ✌🏼
Welcome to Montreal Lucas, fun fact poule mouillée literally means 'wet chicken' but in more street language terms it is someone who's scared of everything.
Exactly, saying "poule mouillée" (wet chicken) is the same as saying "scaredy-cat" in North-American English ......damn, I know what I'm gonna eat for dinner, "Poule Mouillée", here I come
It still doesn't make the slightest bit of sense as a restaurant name, though, nevermind a Portuguese one. Never seen Tony asked to explain it either, which is weird. I'll have to ask next time I go.
I noticed that too...you should come to Newark NJ LOTS of Portuguese places also in surrounding Harrison and Kearney NJ too. The Seabra family has an empire of supermarkets so much they got our of the restaurant game
Tried Portuguese Roast chicken in Toronto and I was blown away at how good it is, super juicy and tasty! Need to try this spot in Montréal on my next trip to Canada
Piri-Piri means Hot-Hot in Swahili ( Bantu language from east Africa ) and Malagueta is a Yoruba word (language from west Africa) and they are chillies. The only other part of the world where there was chillies was Mexico , the Portuguese took chillies to Asia and Maize from south America to Africa. The piri-piri and Malagueta sauces were developed by the Portuguese. Mangoes and Coconuts are Asian fruits introduced to the Americas by the Portuguese and Spaniards. People have to keep in mind that things like Tomatoes and Potatoes only arrived in Europe in the late XVI century and they were used as indoors ornamental plants . Potatoes and Tomatoes only became popular edibles during the late XVII century. The Portuguese ate Piri-Piri and Malagueta sauce good 200 years before any European saw the first Potatoes or tomatoes. Piri - Piri it is a Portuguese sauce made with African or Mexican chilly peppers.
Depois de algumas discussões voltamos a concordar novamente ;) Não sabio que ist fazia sucesso no canadá, mas o molho está um bocado aldrabado, o se colocassem tanto molho cá em Portugal ficavam a arder durante semanas....
Don't forget that India was the spice capital of the world for many centuries, the curry spices are made from an assortment of chillies. The way piri piri is spelt is different to how we spell it peri peri. So it's hard to say that is a Portuguese sauce made with either Mexican ( they weren't Mexican back then but many different groups in the area at the time,) or African unless there was a distinct difference between the chilly grown on the African continent and chillies from India. Its a Portuguese sauce that uses chillies (not jalapeño or habernero). As chillies are grown in Portugal for centuries now and even Canada grows their own, its hard to justify its a sauce that uses African or Mexican chillies as they may have been suppliers long ago but now every continent grows them.
I went to this place like 4 years ago as a plan B because the poutine place across the street "La bonquise" was too busy. We all ordered small poutine and the poutine was actually that size. Ended up being a delightful surprise as it was really delicious! Cool to see an eater feature
sacana chili (2 tsp) garlic (1 cup cleaned) lemon juice (1 cup) olive oil (1 cup) brown sugar (,5 cup) coarse salt (,5 cup) stick in blender and Voila Peri Peri
@@livingthedream8539 Sorry but my grandmother in Lamego (Viseu) Portugal use in their sauce to put in the chicken brown sugar (we call that sugar in Portuguese - Açucar mascavado search images in google) i remember when she was alive that you put the same amount of salt and brown sugar. garlic onions piri-piri and olive oil to make the recipe, i dont know the right amount, because she take the secret to the grave and we never ask...
Loved portuguese chicken in Toronto and fell in love with the piripiri sauce they had, and haven't been able to find another place with the sauce that was as good... I'll have to give this a try. The place I went to was $10 for a half chicken, side of parisian potatoes, rice, and drink, so glad to see that this place is almost as cheap for even more food.
Mesmo pá. vê-se logo que é tuga, agora aquele molho não deve ser mesmo piripiri, porque se fosse ficavas com a boca a arder durante uma semana...tá um bocado aldrabado pros americanos, eheheheheh
I made the trip up from NYC specifically to check this place out and others. Honestly, the best chicken i had, the sauce is amazing and it's a mountain of food for like $12. I ended the stay with a Portugese tart. I love Montreal!!!
In Portugal the spicy sauce is just a translucent oil with piri piri (and some other ingredients I'm sure) that they brush onto the chicken while roasting it, then they add more after cutting it to pieces and placing it in the take-away container. It's not a light-red viscous sauce like in this video, but I'm sure he adapted it to Canadian tastes. Same with the fries and sausages, we usually serve it with simple potato chips rather than french fries, and we use a different type of sausage, more akin to brazilian grill sausages, rather than chouriço. I'm surprised the presenter didn't say anything about the Pasteis de Nata that they serve, those looked 100% legit!
My husband is Fernando and he's very South African... ;-) South Africa has a rich and diverse history and Portuguese is very much a part of that history.
why do americans always have to refer to the country of the city they're talking about? is it because you know nothing about geography and have to specify everything? -.-
+jaczekdertuerke I saw lots of piri piri chicken during my visit. The skin was always crispy with the chili oil in small containers on the table for diners to apply as needed. Again, it was an oil...not a thick sauce and not slathered on top of the chicken like this video.
”Portugalia” at the opposite end of the same street towards Parc Jeanne Mance was my go-to in Montréal. So good. Ma Poule Mouillée was pretty good too though
Lucas!! That looked so good! The fries seems similar to the chips we have here in UK with fish n chips! Looked perfect with the chicken! We've Nando's here but this is on another level! and a bargain! $10, seriously!?
the best piri piri, is in ottawa, canada, I swear, the place is called Pili-Pili, on Dalhousie , chicken cooked on charcoals, with sides of rice and plantains, and salad, ginger-pinaple juice, or hibiscus juice, yummy yummy!! u got to try it , the Best!!
What about that! I didn't know that Piri PIri Chiken was so famous in Canada. One thing i need to say, the Portuguese PiriPiri chiken hasn't so much sauce. Piripiri is very strong, with that amount of sauce you would be burning for days, ahahahahah. Yup, the Chouriço is very Portuguese, i can confirm that. I also can see in your table another Portuguese masterpice, the custard tarts, yummmm. PiriPiri is made with chilli, one of the many Portuguese gifts to world during the age of the discoveries
I watched the entire video listening to the owner thinking he was talking in Portuguese and kept wondering why it sounded so strange. I just realized he was in fact speaking in French with his Portuguese accent😂😂 I speak both and I think my brain just merged them and got confused, lol The poutine looks delish! yums!
A Portuguese restaurant with a french name, only in Montreal. (Not that it's definitely because of the language act, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is.)
Yay Lucas is back! Also wow that food looks amazing! and for that price.. makes me cry ; ; I'd get a little more than half of that chicken and chips plate with salad, for around $25~ for lunch at local Nandos here in Australia lol Food in the north can be found so cheap ._./
This looks like a great value for that amount of serving size. Plus it looks good to go. On a side note , this guy is straight up Nathan Fielder and I mean that as a compliment.
This and Nando's have nothing to do with our own frango assado. We don't use sauce we use a mix of oil and spices that you apply after the chicken is grilled. We serve it with fries, rice and salad.
It’s his generation he came over from either Madeira or Azores as every other Portuguese has. His children and anyone under 40 speaks French natively. My old man speaks with a heavy Italian accent when he speaks French but I’m native French speaker (Italian with my parents).
I used to eat the chicken sandwiches from Coco Rico on Sherbrooke when I lived in the city. I ate at a few other places,, but that was my general Portuguese chicken stop, probably since it was right next to Schwartz. Portuguese cuisine is underrated in general. Actually, European cuisines outside of the usual suspects are often underrated. It may be blasphemy, or it may be because I'm half-white, but I personally prefer eating European and Latin American cuisines to Asian. I live in Massachusetts, my home, now and we oddly don't have much of a culture of selling Portuguese chicken here, at least North of Boston, despite a pretty large Portuguese diaspora. Non-Portuguese people pretty much never eat Portuguese food. I remember once my mother, who could be a picky eater, was once so adamant about not going into a Portuguese restaurant that she stayed in the car instead of entering the restaurant. For a white woman, she strongly preferred Asian restaurants and refused generally to eat in Boston if it wasn't Chinatown.
I agree, Boston doesn't have much when it comes to food, I mean comparing to other cities such as Montreal, New York or LA, not that I diss Boston, far from it. Having family in both Montreal and Boston..
Coco Rico is on St-Laurent aka 'The Main'. But it's rotisserie-style (spit-roasted) chicken (do Americans say rotisserie?), not nearly as good as the stuff grilled over coals (like Ma Poule Mouillee, Romados, Jano, etc). You'd think the rotisserie would bake away the fat, but it's actually much greasier. Coco Rico also smothers it in seasoned salt - it's way WAY too salty. Just an inferior chicken in every way imo, but to each their own.
Dave David I actually never had Romando's, but ate at Janos once. I've been back since university, but actually haven't eaten any Portuguese chicken on any visit back. And yes, we use the word rotisserie here. Really don't know why I wrote Sherbrooke. I lived in NDG by Sherbrooke and ate much on Sherbrooke, buy not any Portuguese food. I think because I would walk from the metro station Sherbrooke to that part of the Main.
No biggie, I just want people to find it. Janos (on the other side of Schwartz) is delicious and amazing value. Chicken leg + lamb chop w/ salad & fries for under $30. Probably the best deal at any joint with waiter service in town, aside from mom n pop Asian places. Man we're spoiled in Montreal. Too bad Beantown doesn't embrace the piri chicken. p.s. Romados*
So, would you say -- and I don't mean to be disrespectful towards your mother -- that she (and others, as it seems) might have some form of prejudice against the Portuguese in general, and the Portuguese diaspora in the States, in particular?!
Romados used to be the top dog but they have been really struggling since reopening after failing hygiene inspection. With low traffic, their food quality has suffered too. It's a shame. I've always preferred wet chicken but Romados was a solid second.
Tony Alves is the man! When you're at Ma Poule Mouillée you're eating with Montreal's finest. Their food is delicious, plentiful, and addictive. Their Portuguese poutine is totally unique to Montreal and has ruined me for any other style poutine. It may be the ultimate in accessible quebecois-fusion food. (And yes, that really was the small poutine - the large is the size of the dinner plate!)
Miguel Vasconcelos Like Dave said, it's a fusion food. Poutine is a strictly French-Canadian creation but it's melded with Portuguese spices and ingredients in this case.
It really is. The best poutine ever and the chicken as good as anywhere in Montreal, too. He also has bifanas and grilled squid is a regular daily special. It's all amazing and amazingly cheap.
Yeah, but it's an adaptation of the Portuguese piripiri chicken not the actual one, the same for Nando's. The Piripiri sauce in Portugal (the real one) is a very strong sauce, restaurants only put a small amount, it's extremely potente and extremelly tastefull, only a small portion is enought. With that much in Portugal you would be burning for days, eheheheheheh. Looks nice thought

Love how portuguese Tony's french accent is 😍
LOL, Lucas mixing up French with Spanish, in a Portugese restaurant
"Es muy populaire?" X))
SkyProtonFood "est trop populaire", non? :D
More like "é muito popular?" Being in a Portuguese restaurant and all.
The french is from the fact that he's in Montreal... French Canada.
très populaire, non? Trop is "too (much)"

Welcome to Montreal Lucas, fun fact poule mouillée literally means 'wet chicken' but in more street language terms it is someone who's scared of everything.

As a Portuguese man, it makes me happy to see people finally enjoying our cuisine. Also, was that pasteis de nata I saw on the table?
Yep! Those are also great at this place!

I was born in the Azores came to America very young never even heard of this looks amazing I must have this plate !!! Heading to Montreal soon!!
Tony na primeira palavra já sabia que era português. Muito sucesso!
there's pretty much no going wrong with chicken and fries.
Not just any chicken.

lemon juice (1 cup)

Rotisserie Romados on Rue Rachel is my go to Portuguese Chicken in Montreal.
lol i think the guy who owns this place used to work at Romados beforehand
Hell na , Ma poule all day
Sane here... Up until they got fined by the health inspection agency
i hit a girl on a bike infront of romados once good times haha 514 in the house
Definitely Romados. That said, there are a dozen good places to get great Portugese chicken here4 in Montreal.
I always thought Lucas was "just" as host and foodie. Then I rewatched the first season of Westworld and who do I see?
Amazing!
That actually looks insanely good.
It is. Like Lucas said, one of the greatest comfort foods.
Piri Piri on Mont Royal street is amazing! Fast service too and nice place to eat with no flies.

This is my favourite place to eat in Montreal, I dream about that special hot sauce. Those little pies they make are so god damn good.
im so hungry even though i just ate!
i want that juicy chicken
Come to New Bedford or Fall River they have some fantastic Portuguese chicken my guy
In Portugal, Piri Piri chicken is like the 123rd most popular dish. This place looks great, but Portuguese cuisine is so much more than bbq chicken.
On my way this afternoon lol
Great contextualization
Adoro o sotaque portugues do patrao 🍀
Lucas!! That looked so good! The fries seems similar to the chips we have here in UK with fish n chips! Looked perfect with the chicken! We've Nando's here but this is on another level! and a bargain! $10, seriously!?

Food in the north can be found so cheap ._./
Portugese chicken - including nando's is actually Mozambiquean as the recipes and ingredients where taken during the colonial times.
its portuguese as the portuguese commercialised the spices and taste of chicken they discovered in mozambique during colonisation

Anish Roy maybe they share bts?
he meant the portion is super big for a small
Anish Roy restaurant probably doesn’t have a “small” size poutine
I've beeen and the portions are big overall. The big poutine feeds two easily.
That IS the small poutine. The large is the size of a dinner plate.
I love this show.
This restaurant is 15 minutes away from my place walking distance simply the best chicken ever !
I love and miss Montreal 😍
This place is firrrrrreeee! So glad this happened!
Best poutine I've ever had (I've tried dozens of places).. Oh, the chicken is also good, but you have to go for the poutine
..so when i go there ask for the poutine and extra chicken on the side..?
Se for a Montreal, tenho que ir ver isto 😋
That looks sooooooooo tasty!!! YUMMI!
Very big in Toronto aswell for 20+ years or so
I am salivating right now
The Chorizo/chicken poutine is so sick!!! Welcome to Québec Lucas!
That chourico looks so Portuguese...i would love to taste it for comparison...
If that’s a petite poutine I would hate to see the large looks like, the chicken is just how I like it, Love Portuguese food...

Fun Fact: The Portuguese introduced tempura, katsu, and bread to the Japanese.
And chinese intoduce pasta to Italians...
Portuguese also introduced chilies, potatoes, tomatoes and pineapples to Asia...
Poutine with Chicken and Chorizo...sounds weird but you never wanna eat anything else after you had it! TBRNK!
Still gazing at the rotisserie grill , would love to have me one like that , is it custom or off the shelf? Anyone ?
Romados used to be the top dog but they have been really struggling since reopening after failing hygiene inspection. With low traffic, their food quality has suffered too. It's a shame. I've always preferred wet chicken but Romados was a solid second.
Man, that looks good. Singing isn't too bad either.
can we get dinning on a dime 10mins per episode? this feel too short
Tony Alves is the man! When you're at Ma Poule Mouillée you're eating with Montreal's finest.
Their food is delicious, plentiful, and addictive. Their Portuguese poutine is totally unique to Montreal and has ruined me for any other style poutine. It may be the ultimate in accessible quebecois-fusion food. (And yes, that really was the small poutine - the large is the size of the dinner plate!)
In Portugal There is not such thing named poutine.
Miguel Vasconcelos Like Dave said, it's a fusion food. Poutine is a strictly French-Canadian creation but it's melded with Portuguese spices and ingredients in this case.
Miguel: I guess Québec has the best the best of both worlds then ;)
my hometown has nando but is it that Good!?
the salad and chicken option is the killer choice
wish I could eat that
Lol Nandos is like a mcdonald’s to this place. The taste at ma poule mouille it way different
I'm going to be severely depressed if you didn't give a nod to Bourdain and visit Pho tay Ho or Elatos in Mtl. Looking forward to rest of series.
Where to buy this kind of rotating charcoal bbq? Any brand please
At that price point and quality, it's tough not to have lines forming up!!
I was just there! Lol go to L’Avenue!
i wish rotisseries and chicken houses were more popular in the states
this guy is the best
Hope you've tried Dino's Chicken in LA. Fantastic grilled chicken served over fries and covered in their "chicken juice"
Dino's is good and cheap...but Portuguese chicken is on another level...trust me
More videos Lucas!!!
This looks exactly like the South African chain Nado's Peri Peri.... wonder if it's different?
Comida portuguesa é FODA!!!
is that good or bad..?
Without a doubt the best poutine in town. FYI the national anthem is Gens du Pays.
Yeah we may have Nando's (Which is delicious) but this looks like another level! That poutine looks amazing!
It really is. The best poutine ever and the chicken as good as anywhere in Montreal, too. He also has bifanas and grilled squid is a regular daily special. It's all amazing and amazingly cheap.
Yeah, but it's an adaptation of the Portuguese piripiri chicken not the actual one, the same for Nando's. The Piripiri sauce in Portugal (the real one) is a very strong sauce, restaurants only put a small amount, it's extremely potente and extremelly tastefull, only a small portion is enought. With that much in Portugal you would be burning for days, eheheheheheh. Looks nice thought
finally lucasss...!!!
That smoked paprika and other spices 😋😋😋
7-9 dollars for that... Sounds incredible
Nice video
The tarts? You didn’t review them!
