Nandos Chicken Wings
Today as our Nandos Chicken Wings In The Air Fryer goes live, we will be celebrating a whole 9 years living in the Algarve in Southern Portugal. We won’t be around as this post goes live as we have a family tradition that on this very special day that we hit the beach. So, our love from the beach!
There is not a day that goes by when we don’t think about how much we love living here and the culture of the country we now call home.
We escaped the bad weather, the high cost of living and the high crime of the north of England nine years ago today and we feel so blessed.
We love the beautiful sunshine, the low cost of living and the low crime rates. Though out of everything we get most excited over the food. I mean who doesn’t just adore Mediterranean foods? They are nutritious yet they taste so good that you forget they are healthy for you.
Like these Nandos Chicken Wings. Made with the wholesome Piri Piri Chicken marinade they are perfect for families that want something special yet simple and want to spend time with their families rather than all night in the kitchen.
You soak your Nandos Chicken Wings overnight in the Nandos marinade and then place them straight into the Air Fryer the next day when you want to eat them.
I actually use the baking pan that you can get as an accessory for the Air Fryer. Just because it has no holes in it, has a handle for carrying it with, makes it great for Air Fryer to dinner table cooking experience. You can then serve it up on your dinner table with the spare marinade that can then form as a dipping sauce.
Also, if you are following the Whole 30 or Paleo and want something good to serve your friends without making them feel like you have forced them on a diet, then this is the dish of your dreams.
Plus, everyone loves a good Air Fryer Chicken Wings recipe!
Then you could also serve them up with our Nandos whole chicken along with a salad and your guests would be very impressed.
But if you haven’t heard of Nandos and their world famous Nandos Wings then read on:
What Is Nandos?
Nandos is an international food chain specialising in barbecued chicken. Its chicken is cooked with the famous Peri Peri marinade. It originated in South Africa by a Portuguese born man by the name of Fernando, hence its famous name.
The chicken is also served in quarters, halves and wholes just like it is in Portugal.
It also serves a range of other dishes including burgers, salads, wings and wraps.
It has a big worldwide fan base with outlets in Australia, Africa, Asia, Europe & North America.
The Nandos brand is constantly growing as people love the spicy flavours alongside authentic African/Portuguese cuisine.
Are Nandos Wings Healthy?
My Nandos Wings At Home are if that makes sense? They are made with simple homemade seasonings, cooked without being breaded and don’t have any flour or other unhealthy produce used in the recipe.
It would also suit a wide range of diets too. Such as Keto, Slimming World, Weight Watchers, Whole30 and Paleo to name a few.
Its like a lot of fast food. Make it yourself at home and it can taste better and be much healthier.
How To Make Nandos Wings?
To make Nandos wings yourself at home you don’t need to do a lot at all!
Simply make your own Nandos marinade, such as our homemade Nandos marinade that you can find here, then leave your wings for a few hours to marinate and then cook your chicken wings in the air fryer like you would normally do.
It is that simple.
You could also use our homemade Nandos Chicken Wings recipe to transform any chicken you have.
It is delicious with a whole chicken, spatchcock chicken, in soup or just with some basic chicken breasts.
