My Family is OBSESSED with This Peruvian Recipe

As a peruvian, you did a great job! One tip for the dry panca chile pepper, at least this is how my family does it… wash it, remove the seeds and then soak it in water or boil it a few minutes to get rid of the spiciness from it. Once it’s hydrated, you can blend it with oil to creat your own paste. The paste you buy it’s too spicy 😉

Billy, here in Peru we prepare those red dried ajíes (chilis) by boiling them in an uncovered saucepan with water that covers 'em for about 15's repeating this two or three more times more to avoid all the picante and then we blend them with a mixer with some oil, salt and a bit of water. We keep 'em into glass jars and in the refrigerator and it longs for quite a time. We are very proud you like and promote our delicious Peruvian Chicken Recipe. I'll be delighted to be any help to share details on this recipe or anyother one. Keep those aji panca seeds and plant them in your garden! Peruvian regards.

anyone who toasts their spices is immediately an amazing cook in my book

I’m glad people are starting to find out about this recipe. It’s famous for a reason 🇵🇪

Wow...as a peruvian you made me proud of our pollo a la brasa. Well done chef!

as a peruvian i can tell you you did it so accurate to the traditional way. the only difference is the use of carbon that we use in the restaurants that sell it. well done chef

I ate in a small Peruvian restaurant in Spain. There was just one Peruvian guy working there (from what I saw) cooking and serving all the food. Most the food was pretty good, but the half chicken we ordered was definitely the nicest roast Chicken I have ever eaten. Incredibly juicy and packed with flavour.

My mom is Peruvian, I’m so proud 😭😭😭😭 This dish is AMAZING and i’m soooo stinking excited it’s made its way into an english tutorial!!!!!!!! great job ❤️🤍❤️

Love your use of the word 'you,' when so many other cooks constantly say: 'I."

I had dined many times in Peruvian restaurants in the USA and usually order Peruvian style roasted chicken, but when I finally visited Peru a few years ago, I noticed the wood cooked chicken there tastes different than what you get in the USA because in Peru, they use invasive but plentiful eucalyptus wood to roast the chicken. It imparts a distinct flavor to Peruvian wood roasted chicken.

Peruvian food is so delicious

This is the first dish I ordered at a Peruvian restaurant. It was so good that, years later, it's still the ONLY dish I've ordered at a Peruvian restaurant! I keep coming back for more!

Well done 👌🏻 2-3 days of marination, Spatchcocking the chicken and cooking on a charcoal grill is next level!

Gracias Billy! You made us Peruvian people really proud ❤

You made me sooo hungry with all these spices. I cannot wait to try this recipe. Thank you!

In Peru you can find a “pollería” in almost every avenue. Thanks for sharing this. It’s not really the most traditional way, but it works. The traditional way we use in the marinate a beverage called “chicha de jora” or as a replacement a black beer (which I thought you were going to use). I love how our Peruvian people in other countries use the ingredients they have to make the food as similar as in Peru. Thats the cae of what you call “Peruvian” sauce, which may have been invented by Peruvians but not in Peru. In our country we use “aji de pollería” and uses garlic, onion, and a lot of “aji Amarillo” to prep this. You should try to make that sauce! It will amaze you how good it is. Good video🤙🏼

Pollo a la brasa is UNBELIEVABLE GOOD

I'm from new zealand but live in Peru. This is my fav recipe. I'm fortunate enough to be able to go to the supermarket and purchase the sauce premade. I recommend everyone should try this.
