Peruvian Chicken (Serves 6–8)
Ingredients
For the Chicken
4–5 lbs bone-in chicken thighs
3 tbsp @ajiamarillosauce
3 tbsp @mama.tere.usa aji panca paste
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
5 cloves garlic, minced
Salt & pepper to taste
For the Aji Verde (Green Sauce)
2 cups fresh cilantro (packed)
2–3 jalapeños, seeded for less heat
3 cloves garlic
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup sour cream
Salt & pepper to taste
Method
Marinate the Chicken
In a huge bowl, toss chicken thighs with aji amarillo, aji panca, lemon zest, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, oregano, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
Mix well to coat everything evenly.
Cover and marinate at least 3 hours (overnight is best).
Grill or Roast
Preheat your grill (I used my Big Green Egg) or oven to 375°F.
If grilling, use indirect heat or a deflector plate to prevent burning.
Cook for about 1 hour or until internal temp hits 165°F.
Let rest for 10 minutes.
Make the Aji Verde
Blend cilantro, jalapeños, garlic, mayo, sour cream, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Serve
Pile the chicken on a big platter.
Serve with the chilled green sauce on the side.
Watch your friends and family devour it.

How can her family be half-Peruvian?
A meal has more than one item. I don't see anything but chicken and the green dip. Where's the "meal"?
Mmmm. 😊
That looks phenomenal.
Green creamy guacamole sauce. Mmm.
Do you love in a castle!
Am I tripping or is the way he’s saying Amarillo…like a little of center? Like a lil woppy soppy😂
It looks really good.
It's too bad (for me) that I am allergic to chicken.
Awesome ❤️
Why would u broil in the oven if u could done that on the charcoal grill?
Jalapeño….. that's not Peruvian. I don't doubt it's delicious, is just that there's no jalapeño in South America 😅😅😅
I have no idea how you are handling those aji amarillos without gloves on…my hands would be on fire for the entire day

This man is cooking wholesome food for his family, that is really amazing! I’m happy to see big families eating together a lot, I wish I could do the same with mine…my family is all spread out. Also have much of my family has passed away, but the memories I have best is when we all gathered and enjoyed a meal together. Treasure these precious moments! 🙏 God bless!
