One plate of rice definitely not enough for this yummy dish, sound so delicious !
YUMMMM.. I just had dinner an hour ago and I'm hungry again!! I want to eat that chicken!!
Looks really good! Will be a great dish for my dinner!!
Ohh I sooo want to make this. How come red chili is so cheap there? Red chili cost $3.99/lb here. What if I don't have Kaffir Lime Leave can I still make this?
Yummy braised chicken. I'll definitely can have a big bowl of rice with this dish. :)
I sure this spicy dish must be very "ummmph" until your daughter kept eating them. Don't think my son can tolerate this spiciness. He is going to scold me if I were to cook this dish. ;)

Hi, my reply to you previous question:
Basically Peri-Peri sauce is produced by Nando's, a franchise that is famous for its Portuguese Peri-Peri grilled chicken. All their chicken dishes are marinated with their Peri-Peri sauce before grilling. Now, their Peri-Peri sauce can be found in hypermarkets. It's a very flavorful sauce, with lots of spices.
Thank you all ladies for your lovvey comments ☺

Great with rice! Nowadays I remove the seeds from chillies so I can adjust the level of spiciness later.
