My take on the Nandos secret menu item, the Nandos loaded fries. Fries, shredded Nandos style chicken, halloumi and my piri mayo!
Have you heard about the Nandos 'secret menu item'?
I have seen it doing the rounds on social media, so just had to give it a go myself!
It is essentially a stack of all the best bits from Nando's, fries/chips, Nando's chicken, halloumi and peri mayo.
This was sooo good! I really enjoyed it, and made extra chicken so I can easily have it again.
This recipe works really well if cooked in the slow cooker, the chicken just falls apart. You can also cook in the oven instead.
I added in some onion and pepper to the chicken mix, and served with peas.
I drizzled the fries with some homemade peri mayo, but you could easily buy some of the ready made stuff to make life easier, just adjust the calorie count!
I made this recipe with a hot and spicy Nandos style sauce. If this isn't for you, it would also work out great with my Nandos Lemon & Herb recipe

My take on the Nandos secret menu item, the Nandos loaded fries. Fries, shredded Nandos style chicken, halloumi and my piri mayo!
Ingredients
- 2 large skinless chicken breasts
- My chips recipe is here
- Optional: Spring onions
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 1 yellow pepper, diced
- For the sauce:
- Red chillies (adjust according to personal taste, the more chillies the hotter it is!)
- 1 red pepper
- 1 red onion
- juice of one lemon
- juice of half a lime
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp red chilli powder
- 5 cloves of garlic
- 4 tbsp malt vinegar
- 4 cherry tomatoes
- 50ml water
- 1/2 pack halloumi
- Peri Mayo:
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp red chilli powder

- 1/4 tsp dry ginger powder
- 1/4 tsp red chilli flakes
- 1/4 tsp oregano
- Pinch salt & pepper
Instructions
- Blitz all the piri piri sauce ingredients together in a food processor until it becomes a smooth paste. Use this to marinate the chicken and to cook it in.
- If using a slow cooker, add the chicken, peppers and onion in with the peri peri sauce and heat on low for 7 hours or high for 4 hour, OR Place the chicken in a large dish and place in a pre-heated oven at 170 C and bake for about 35 minutes.
- Meanwhile prepare your chips, you can also use oven chips for ease.
- When the chicken is ready, pull it and shred it using 2 forks, and mix the chicken in with the sauce onions and peppers to create the topping.
- Fry off your halloumi in small chunks.
- Mix all the mayo ingredients together and add to a squeezy bottle if you have one.
- Layer up your chips, chicken and halloumi, then drizzle with the mayo and top with spring onions.
Notes:
Can be cooked in the slow cooker, or in the oven.
