My daughter brought me some of this sauce from Peru and I loved it. Unfortunately,  I can't find it where I live, but I did find the aji Amarillo paste and tried out your recipe.  So delish!!! Thank you for sharing...I will be making this A LOT! 😊

Just made this to go with a Peruvian Chicken recipe we were trying. This sauce is awesome, but, beware it has a bite. If you are spice adverse, like my wife, maybe cut the aji spice in half.

I just made this and it is an explosion of flavor! Absolutely amazing!!!
