Amazing Peruvian Lomo Saltado Recipe (fast, easy!)

Amazing Peruvian Lomo Saltado Recipe (fast, easy!)

A happy marriage between both Asian and Peruvian culinary cultures, this hearty beef and potatoes dish lives in a tangy, soy sauced-based sauce and is perfect with a heap of cooked white rice on the side. The one-two punch of both jalapeños and chili crisp brings the heat, but either can be omitted, if you like a milder heat level.

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 amarillo 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.
