Peri-Peri Chicken and Veg
Jul
Here is one of my personal favourites. Peri-Peri Chicken with vegetables. The reason why this is such an awesome meal is that you can cook both your meat and veggies at the same time and without getting your camp oven or skillet dirty. Harry from Fire to Fork prepared this awesome meal using our Camp Braai with medium coals.
Another method to braai this meal is to hang the braai basket on the stand about 1M away from open flames. It will take about 2.5 hours hanging it next to the fire but it will require less turning because it will slow roast.

Leave in the fridge for between 2 hrs and 2 days.
Cut up the sweet potato and potato and wrap in aluminium foil with butter, olive oil, salt and pepper
Place in the Camp Braai – ensure the package is the same thickness as the chicken.
Add the chicken next to the vegetables
Cook on the top setting over medium heat for 1.5 hours, flipping every 20 minutes.
Wrap the broccolini in aluminium foil with a knob of butter and a pinch of salt
Place on the coals when the chicken looks like it is about 15 minutes away (i.e. nicely browned).
Optional – pan fry the roast vegetables afterwards for a bit of extra colour.
