Piri Piri Chicken eggs rolls are filled with a cheesy and spicy piri piri chicken filling. Loaded with tender spicy chicken, cream cheese and mozzarella cheese these are not your average egg rolls! Portuguese BBQ piri piri chicken is a staple in Portuguese cooking. The chicken is marinated in piri piri sauce and serve with more sauce for dipping. These egg rolls are a creamy cheesy twist on the classic piri piri chicken. They are highly addictive and are a great make ahead appetizer!
