  • 2 lb / 900 g chicken wings split into drumettes and wingettes

Peri Peri Marinade (Note 1)

  • 2 Bird's eye chilies stems removed (Add in more to increase heat)

Instructions
 

  • Add all marinade ingredients together in a blender or food processor. Pulse until mostly smooth or your desired consistency.
