Take a trip to Lima with Chef Maribel as she cooks her favorite Peruvian dish, ají de gallina. This beloved dish features chicken cooked in a curry-like sauce highlighting the quintessential Peruvian chili, aji amarillo, which is sweet and floral with mild spice. The aji amarillo peppers are cooked with nuts and spices, making for a creamy, aromatic sauce for the tender chicken, which gets topped with crunchy pecan-parsley breadcrumbs and Kalamata olives for a pop of texture and brightness. The comforting meal is completed with green beans and a bed of Jasmine rice infused with butter, garlic, carrots, and peas.

About Maribel Rivero

chef image

Personal chef and cooking instructor in Austin, TX. My specialty covers foods from South America to North America. I'm motivated by the stories behind cooking and expressing that story into the flavor of the food. In 2017, my brother and I created Yuyo Peruano restaurant as a celebration of my culinary immersion throughout South America, where I connected with the people and the culinary community from Bolivia, Peru, Argentina, and Uruguay. I was recognized by the James Beard Foundation with a Best Chef nomination in 2019. Due to covid Yuyo closed with many other opportunities to cook for many more than I could have imagined through CookUnity.
