Peruvian-Style Chicken Chow Mein

Chef Maribel shines a light on Chifa—a unique culinary tradition that fuses Chinese cooking techniques and native Peruvian ingredients. Marinated chicken thighs are golden-seared, then tossed with springy chow mein noodles, crisp sugar snap peas, earthy mushrooms, and crunchy cabbage. The sauce—soy, ginger, garlic, and sesame—gets its eye-catching glow from aji amarillo, a yellow chile prized in Peru for its gentle heat and fruity warmth.

About Maribel Rivero

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.
