This Portuguese piri-piri hot sauce is made with bird's eye chiles, which can be used on chicken, shrimp, pork, or just about any dish in Portugal.

Instructions
- Coarsely chop the peppers and discard stems.
- Place the chilis and their seeds, the garlic, lemon juice, salt, and as much of the oil as you wish in a food processor fitted with a metal blade and purée. Pour the mixture into a small glass jar and let steep for several days in the fridge.
- You can strain the mixture and return it to jar, but I like mine with a bit of texture. Sauce will keep in the refrigerator for 1 month.
