These peri peri chicken burgers are the kind of recipe that disappear fast, get requested again immediately and quietly become part of your regular rotation. Crispy buttermilk fried chicken, soft brioche buns, spicy peri peri mayo and a sticky hit of chilli jam make these peri peri chicken burgers outrageously good. They are crunchy, juicy, spicy, creamy and sweet all in one bite.
Let the chicken marinate in the spiced buttermilk for as long as you can. Even an extra 30 minutes makes a noticeable difference. The longer soak deeply seasons the meat and tenderises it, which keeps the chicken juicy while frying and prevents the coating from sliding off.
