Peruvian Grilled Chicken
One of the main reasons was because of some of the ingredients that are common to Indian cooking. In fact, it came out really good and me and my mom thoroughly enjoyed this grilled chicken.
Even though it is Peruvian, it seems that there is a huge Asian influence in their cooking as evidenced by the use of Soy sauce in this recipe. The chicken had a nice spicy flavor with a hint of tangy soy sauce.
This recipe is very easy to follow so let me know in the comments if you try it.

Method Of Preparation :

- Grill the chicken for 30 – 35 minutes or until it’s fully cooked.
- If you don’t have a grill you can roast the chicken in oven.
- Set the oven for 500 F and put the chicken in a wide 13 by 9 inch roasting pan with 1 cup of water and roast it for 30 minutes.
- Then tented with foil and roasted until brown in color and cooked through, it’s about 15 minutes more.
