Might be a dumb question, but did you make the peri peri sauce or buy it? I've only used the Nando's sauce from the store, which is good, but your sauce looks better than mine ever has -- although I've never done a whole chicken.

I actually think the balsamic was a little too sweet. Red wine vinegar would have been better, since the grapes are already sweet.

I add more lemon juice and a bit less garlic and leave out basil and oregano (tbh, I think they'd be swamped by th e garlic, lemon and vinegar anyway), but if you start with that give it a taste and add as required. It's a real cinch to make and once you've had it homemade you won't go back to buying it.

actually the poached salmon was made on Sunday and then just eaten cold tonight. The Caesar salad was widely shared.
