Pollo A La Brasa Chicken Breasts Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Pollo a la brasa is a version of marinated rotisserie chicken that is very popular in peru, and increasingly available abroad as well. This uniquely seasoned chicken was popularized by two swiss expatriates in lima in the 1950s, at their restaurant la granja azul (which is still open today). We love the flavor of pollo a la brasa, but we sometimes prefer boneless skinless chicken breasts to whole roasted chickens (and we don't have a rotisserie grill). These chicken breasts are marinated with the same great seasoning, pan-fried, then finished in the oven. The result is tender chicken with tons of peruvian flavor.
