Ingredients for the Peruvian Aji Verde Sauce :
1 cup fresh Coriander leaves
1/2 cup chopped Spring Onion Greens
2–3 Green Chilies, seeds removed (According to spice intake)
1 clove Garlic
1/2 cup Greek Yogurt or hung curd
1/4 cup Mayonnaise

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, white vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, white pepper, black pepper, all-purpose seasoning and lime juice.
Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, coating each piece thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or preferably overnight.
Preheat the grill to 170°C or 340°F. Line the baking trays with parchment paper or aluminium foil. Lightly brush to grease them with oil and keep it ready.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Grill the chicken for about 6-8 minutes or until well seared.
Flip and cook for another 8-10 minutes, till cooked through and lightly charred.
In the meanwhile prepare the Peruvian Aji Verde sauce by blending all green sauce ingredients in a blender jar.
Serve the grilled chicken immediately along with the creamy green sauce to add a flavour blast to your Peruvian Grilled Chicken.

Notes

If you want to use the Air fryer instead, preheat your air fryer to 180°C or 360°F. Place the chicken in the air fryer basket and cook for 12-15 minutes. Remember to flip the chicken pieces midway into cooking.
