PREPARATIONS
In order to begin the preparation of the recipe Aji de
Gallina, you start by cutting the chicken into pieces (if
you have bought the chicken breasts this will be
easier). Put them in a pot, and cook with the cube of
chicken broth, the carrot cut in 4 and 2 cloves of
chopped garlic and the bay leaf.

When it is already cooked, begin to crumble, deflate


the meat with your fingers, reserve and refrigerate.
It is advisable to reserve a plate of chicken broth.
This procedure can be done the day before or in the
morning for the night in order to let it rest.
Put the bread soaked in milk.
In a frying pan, put oil, the onions cut into quarters,
the rest of chopped garlic, put the marinade in the
mixer with a little of broth and after having removed
the seeds, spice up.
When the onions are transparent, add the drained
bread, which you already have passed through the
mixer, mix all and add the broth. Cook to simmer for
10 minutes.
Add the chunks of cooked chicken. Mix well.
If you have prepared the dish in advance, you will
finish with the following at the last moment.
5 minutes before serving, add salt, add walnut,
thicken with a little of concentrated milk without
sugar. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Rectify the
seasoning.
Serve with white rice; we are in Peru, right? Decorate
with the potatoes around (yes, with rice only it is too
light!). Decorate with a half boiled egg, olives and a
little parsley.
