Peruvian Roasted Chicken
In Peru, pollo a la brasa is more than grilled chicken—it’s a national obsession. Here, a juicy chicken thigh is marinated in a tangy blend of guajillo chile, garlic, soy, and vinegar, then grilled until charred. It’s served with roasted potatoes, a bright tomato and red onion escabeche, and aji amarillo aioli for a creamy kick. It’s smoky, punchy, and packed with iconic Peruvian flavor.
