Ají verde is a popular Peruvian condiment. Creamy and spicy, with fruity acidity from lime juice, it’s the perfect accompaniment to pollo a la brasa. Ají amarillo is a spicy yellow Peruvian chili. Look for ají amarillo paste in Latin American markets, but if not available, simply omit it. The sauce still will taste great.

Delicious
I made this to go with SKILLET-ROASTED PERUVIAN-STYLE CHICKEN. This sauce would be good on anything. So very delicious.

I could put this on waffles
This sauce pairs perfectly with the Peruvian style chicken. It’s also great just with some crusty bread. Very flavorful.
