This sauce is comparable to nando's piri piri sauce, the flavor is all there, it's not as hot, but it still packs some heat.

I did this recipe on chicken. It was delicious! There is a recipe for sauce I’m looking for that I had in Toronto. The take out place would brush the sauce on the chicken after it was cooked. It had olive oil as well it was red on the bottom of the sauce when it divided when left sitting. I use to order extra sauce. Do you know the recipe for this sauce??

Hi Leigh-Ann, we always just use plain white vinegar here at home for this.
