🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴
✅Ingredients
• 1 (3 to 4) pound whole chicken, giblets removed
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 limes, juiced
• 4 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter, optional
✅Instructions
1️⃣ 00:00:12 - Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
2️⃣ 00:00:16 - Place the chicken on a roasting pan rack. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lime juice, garlic, salt, cumin, paprika, sugar, pepper, and oregano. Rub the outside of the chicken with some of the mixture. Use your fingers to loosen the skin around each end opening. Spoon some of the spice mixture under the skin so the flavors get in direct contact with the meat. Optional, use kitchen string to tie the drumsticks together.
3️⃣ 00:01:53 - Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
4️⃣ 00:02:00 - Reduce temperature to 350 degrees. Place butter on top of chicken (optional). Continue roasting until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees, about 1 hour, 15 minutes. Baste the chicken periodically for maximum moisture.
5️⃣ 00:03:35 - Let chicken rest for 10 to 15 minutes before cutting and serving. Serve hot with Peruvian Dipping Sauce.
Peruvian Green Dipping Sauce:
✅Ingredients
• 1 cup fresh cilantro loosely packed
• 1 to 2 jalapenos
• 1 tablespoons aji Amarillo paste*
• 2 tablespoons grated cotija cheese**
• 1 clove minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
✅Instructions
1️⃣ 00:02:19 - Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Puree. Store in refrigerator until ready to serve.

I truly appreciate when a person giving instructions gets right to the point. This was sweet and simple, and you also made it feel trouble free. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@Love-ql7rd]

Wow! I made this exactly and it was delicious! I then deboned the chicken after we ate dinner and used left over chicken in juices to make chicken taco dinner later in week. I then made bone broth from the whole chicken bone and used this for chicken tortilla soup stock using same rub for a few chicken breast I shredded. I would have used left over chicken from the whole chicken but didn’t think I had enough. This entire week of recipes was amazing and my family loved all of it! Thank you!,❤️

[@anthonygirard9760]

I made the Peruvian Chicken two times before making the green sauce. It was good but now the green sauce the highlight of the meal!! I look forward to the green sauce!

[@michellefigueroa3612]

I am Peruvian, this video excites me!!!

[@vickybroadwater4848]

Just made this for dinner tonight and it’s easily as good as, if not better than, anything I’ve had a restaurant. Amazing!!!

[@hotbritney1]

I made it at least like 10 times i always come in here to watch the video every time thank you so much for the recipe

[@Thestayathomechef]

My pleasure 😊

[@adolfobriceno1635]

Awesome. We love the sauce so much that it wouldn't be Peruvian chicken without the sauce

[@Thestayathomechef]

We eat the green sauce on lots of things. It’s so good!

[@catgirlmt]

How exciting to see a Peruvian recipe! I've been to Lima twice...loved the food and I can't wait to make this! Thank you! Do you speak Spanish?

[@ChefBendOregon]

I love the idea you’re making something Peruvian, this recipe is great, but it could be even better if you replace jalapeños for rocoto pepper or whole Aji amarillo, we don’t use jalapeños in Peruvian cuisine. You can find those chilies in any Mexican or Latino store or online as you found the aji amarillo paste. Another thing is that we don’t use Cotija, highly recommended to use Queso fresco. Other than that great recipe. This is not a food critic is just a suggestion.

[@anthonygirard9760]

I'm not especially fond of Cotija cheese and the store didn't have it so I bought Queso Fresco. Did the same last time I made it...

[@momsagainstmedicalbullying6154]

The chicken and sauce were on point!! Thanks for the great recipe . I even used the substitutes for the sauce and it still came out great

[@isabelminaya]

Thanks for the peruvian recipe. It is nice to see that more people like peruvian food:). Some clarifications: in Peru we don't use jalapeño in our recipes, we use rocoto peruano. Second don't use that cheese, we use simple fresh cheese. Third we don't use paprika we use red Chilli. You can find those products easily in Latin markets or Amazon. Thanks again and I hope you can try those changes.

[@0124twinlc]

I appreciate the clarifications

[@BakerDesmond8]

Not red chilli it’s called “aji panca”

[@siguenciajulio]

Rachel show me how to make peruvian lomo salteado please 😋😋

[@adolfobriceno1635]

Thanks. We love Peruvian chicken

[@Thestayathomechef]

My mouth is watering. I love crispy flavorful skin, it separates us from the weak who can't handle skin!

[@Cappadoccia04]

Thanks for sharing this video. I went out and bought a roasting pan last night so that I could make your recipe today.

[@jameswarner5878]

I'm watching this while eating leftovers of Stayat Home Chef chicken chow mein (well, lo mein).

[@pgarwood]

I’m saving this recipe for the cooler months. Right now it’s too hot to keep my oven on that long. Sounds yummy!

[@rafaelc2367]

Made it and it's super delicious. Ordered the Aji amarillo to make it better next time. I used an instant pot for 30 min and worked really well. I always had this with tacu tacu and wish you would explore that recipe too. Maybe a baked version or something would be cool. Thank you

[@nooncactus]

Your presentations are irresistible. 😋 💕

Yummy

[@charlesc1487]

Thanks for this! Do you think this could also be applied to turkey for Peruvian style turkey?

[@Thestayathomechef]

Worth a try (:

[@mehreen4eva]

Where is your roasting pan from? It’s beautiful!

[@Auriel5]

You look like Janett from The good place 😮🤗

[@Thestayathomechef]

OR does Janett from the good place look like me?

[@dukejohnson6025]

The 2 TBSP OF butter, is the melted or just regular butter.

[@kevinhullinger8743]

You need to give Jenn Segal “once upon a Chef” credit for this recipe.

[@Thestayathomechef]

Why? This recipe ha been on my website since 2016.

[@dollyperry3020]

What side dishes do you usually serve this with?

[@Thestayathomechef]

Any kind of potatoes or roasted veggies would be fantastic.

[@mariatamayo]

Typical peruvian dishes usually have roasted potatoes and or rice and make sure ur rice is made w caramelizada onions and garlic! 🇵🇪

[@beccas5618]

Hi. It seemed my oven was too hot for the temperature recommended. Did anyone else have that issue?

[@sams2284]

Why the sugar in the mix.

[@tonygirard3307]

I'm going to make it but not the sauce. It's got ingredients I would not normally use costing extra time and money.

[@robaeron]

Have anyone tried this recipe with a turkey instead? Off course, more ingredient amount and cooking time would be needed.

[@chuggco]

Hey thanks for sharing one of our dishes. But it is misleading to use jalapeños since SouthAmerica Cousine don't uses jalapeños at all. We have our own set of hot peppers from The Andes. Next time make sure to clarify what are the real ingredients and then let the public know what is a good substitute right here in The States.

[@jameswarner5878]

This recipe has me startled, I'm so startled right now... someone please understand the reference.

[@Moonbae0323]

Are you Peruvian?

[@sadie4me2]

Parsley instead of cilantro?

[@Thestayathomechef]

That's the usual substitution for those who don't like cilantro.

[@billydee6106]

I don't trust a non Peruvian chef telling me how to make Peruvian cuisine

[@BakerDesmond8]

That is nothing like Peruvian style roast chicken. Firstly, no one in Peru uses olive oil to marinate chicken, neither paprika. They use “aji panca” instead of paprika. Cumin is not used for chicken only pepper, instead of lemon they use white or red wine vinegar. Chicken is usually cooked on the spit rotisserie NOT in the oven. Please don’t call it Peruvian style when is not.
