Who this list is for
This checklist is for anyone preparing Peruvian chicken ají verde bowls for four. If you want a full meal with roasted chicken, potatoes, rice, and a fresh green sauce, this is designed for you. It’s not a rotisserie chicken recipe—expect to cook everything from scratch for a bowl-style dinner.
How to use this list
Begin by reviewing your pantry for staples like olive oil, ground cumin, soy sauce, and kosher salt. For the fresh ingredients, head to the produce section for yellow potatoes, fresh cilantro, mint, jalapeños, garlic, and a lime. Pick up boneless skinless chicken thighs from the meat section and jasmine rice from the grains. Mayonnaise is key for the ají verde sauce, so check your fridge. Cross off what you have before shopping.
What to skip
Don’t use bone-in chicken or chicken breast—thighs stay juicier in this bowl. Avoid substituting regular potatoes for yellow potatoes; the texture and flavor are different. Don’t skip the fresh herbs or swap dried versions, as the sauce depends on their freshness. Bottled lime juice won’t give the same punch as a fresh lime.
What is on this list

Before you cook
