Aaron Crowder of Cervo’s in Manhattan's Lower East Side makes piri piri chicken, a slightly spicy, classic Portuguese dish, in the MUNCHIES Test Kitchen. He uses fresh, pickled, and fermented piri piri chili peppers, as well as tomato paste, to achieve the perfect ratio of heat to tang. Deboning the chicken results in a more evenly cooked bird, and a side of homemade aioli and fries rounds out the dish.
