PERUVIAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH SPICY CILANTRO SAUCE
Burnished-skinned, deeply flavored and more than just a little spicy, it's no wonder that Peruvian chicken has become something of an obsession here in the United States. There are dozens of way to make this dish, but most recipes call for two different kinds of Peruvian chile pastes - aji amarilla and aji panca - to add the necessary complexity and heat. You can find them at South American markets and online. But in a pinch, you can substitute a red chile paste (like sriracha or sambal) for the aji amarillo, and ground pasilla chile powder for the aji panca. The flavors won't be traditional, but the chicken will still be tasty - especially when slathered with the irresistibly creamy, spicy cilantro sauce that goes alongside.

Steps:
- For the marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together garlic, soy sauce, aji amarillo paste, lime juice, aji panca paste, mustard, cumin, pepper and salt.
- Add chicken halves, turning to coat them all over with marinade. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours.
- Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Arrange skin-side up on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with oil.
- Roast until skin is golden and chicken is cooked through, 35 to 45 minutes (if using chicken parts, remove the breasts after 25 to 35 minutes). Remove from oven and let sit, loosely covered with foil, for 10 minutes before serving.
- While chicken is roasting, make the sauce. In a blender, blend cilantro, jalapeños, feta, garlic, lime juice, oregano, salt, mustard, aji amarillo paste, honey, and cumin until smooth. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in oil until mixture is emulsified. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt or lime juice or both.
- Carve the chicken and serve with the sauce and lime wedges on the side.

- Peruvian Pan de Anis (Anise Bread) If you’re looking for a new sweet bread recipe, check out this one for anise bread, or Peruvian pan de anis. In addition to “normal” bread ingredients like yeast, eggs, flour, and water, the bread also contains anise seed and ⅓ cup of sugar.
- Peruvian Potato-Chicken Salad (Causa Rellena) I can say with 100% confidence that this Peruvian potato-chicken salad doesn’t look like any salad you’ve ever seen.
- Yuquitas Fritas (Peruvian Yucca Fries) Although yuquitas fritas take an hour to cook, you can prepare them with four simple ingredients in 15 minutes or less.
- Salchipapas. You can make this traditional Peruvian dish in 35 minutes with fewer than 10 ingredients. It’s starchy, meaty, and tastes like authentic street food.
