Welcome to Cooking with Wendy, yesterday I went to downtown, 1.5 hr away from where I live, but it was worth it. I found several Latino Supermarkets, and even a tiny Peruvian Restaurant, shame on me that I found it when I just had lunch :( I bought many things for my kitchen and be able to offer you more variety of dishes.
Today I bring you something super easy and delicious to make! Remember the Aji de Gallina or Peruvian Chicken Chili-Sauce..., I'll show you how I make it! Here I go.
Ingredients (3-4 servings)
2 Chicken Breasts
1 large diced onion
1 tsp of crushed garlic
1 1/2 Aji Amarillo or Yellow Pepper (or 3 tbsp bottled pasta)
4 slices of bread
2 cups Fresh Milk
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Oregano to taste
1 pinch of Nutmeg
Preparation Steps:
Step 1: Put water in a pot and boil the chicken, I use boneless chicken breast. Do not forget to take a little salt, garlic, oregano, I always put a bit of black pepper (optional).

Step 3: Blend bread (I use whole wheat), milk and yellow pepper (no veins nor seeds)
TIP: If you like spicy food add half or less of the vein and blend everything!

Step 4: medium heat temp- In a pot fry with a little oil the garlic, then add onions, oregano, salt, pepper and a touch of nutmeg or nutmeg (optional)
Now we set up the dish, as you know Peruvian friends, the Chicken Chili-Sauce is commonly accompanied by white rice, boiled potato and egg ... but I do not like potatoes and rice mix very often for its high carbohydrate fattening, so here I present my dish served with white rice and a touch of egg. Enjoy!! ... The rich came true! my husband was happier than ever: D lol ....
This is my wife's favorite dish. I think you should have a printable version button on the page to easily print out the recipes. If you do and I didn't see it I apologize :D
