Peruvian chicken, or pollo alla brasa, gets its bold flavor and vibrant color from two sauces: a garlicky, spiced marinade that coats the meat in a brick-red paste, and a creamy, herbaceous green sauce served on the side for drizzling and dipping. While traditional recipes call for a whole chicken or skin-on, bone-in parts, this … Read more
These grilled chicken skewers are flavorful, spicy, and full of citrusy pep, all without having to juice a lemon. The secret ingredient? Sprite.
