Peruvian Chicken with Green Sauce
This Peruvian Chicken with Green Sauce is loaded with so much flavor! Marinated and grilled chicken meets its match with a creamy and spicy green sauce, otherwise known as ají verde. Serve with homemade french fries or crispy roasted potatoes!
Make the marinade: Add garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, paprika, cumin, oregano, honey and lime juice to a food processor.
Pulse until blended, 30 seconds or so.
Add the chicken thighs to a large ziplock bag. Pour the marinade on top. Seal the bag and toss to coat the chicken. Marinade for 1-2 hours.
Preheat grill to 400 degrees. Grease the grill with oil or nonstick cooking spray.Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes a side or until an internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Allow the chicken to rest on a cutting board to 5 minutes before slicing and serving with the green sauce.
