Escabeche de Pollo | Traditional Chicken Dish From Peru | TasteAtlas

Escabeche de pollo

Escabeche de pollo is a Peruvian dish consisting of browned chicken pieces covered in pickling sauce. In Peru, escabeche is prepared as a pickled combination of onions, vinegar, honey, and aji peppers. Although fish escabeche is more popular, this dish is made with chicken, and when prepared, it is usually served with rice which soaks up the flavorful acidic sauce.


Before serving, escabeche de pollo can be additionally garnished with olives and pieces of hard-boiled eggs, and it is often served on a bed of lettuce, which results in a very visually-appealing poultry dish.
