Peruvian-Style Grilled Chicken (Pollo a la Brasa)

Grilled chicken is enjoyed everywhere around the world, but among all variations, turn your attention to this recipe from Peru: pollo a la brasa. It’s butterflied chicken marinated in a mix of chili pastes, soy sauce and garlic. These chili pastes, which can be found in Latin grocery stores, are essential to the recipe and provide an incomparable depth of flavour. Serve the grilled chicken with a green sauce made from cilantro, jalapeño pepper and lime, for a refreshing finish. It also includes mayonnaise and grated cotija cheese for flavour and texture.
