Chicken Mozambique is a popular Portuguese dish which combines tender chicken in a delicious lemon garlic sauce. The addition of some spicy and flavorful African piri piri sauce is what completes this already delicious dish. Chicken Mozambique is great because it is not difficult to make and is always sure to impress. It is most typically served alongside a side of white rice or french fries.
