🛒 Ingredients
🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix chicken wings with olive oil, lemon juice, crushed garlic, paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper (if using), salt and pepper. Cover and marinate in refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

  2. 2

    Preheat your grill or oven to 200°C. Grill wings for 25-30 minutes on barbecue or 30-35 minutes in oven, turning regularly until golden and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Peel plantains and cut into 1 cm slices. Fry in oil at 180°C for 3-4 minutes each side until golden and crispy. Drain and salt.

  4. 4

    In a bowl, mix chopped tomatoes, red onion, green bell pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, cilantro, salt and pepper. Let rest 15 minutes in refrigerator.

  5. 5

    Arrange grilled wings on a plate, add fried plantains alongside. Garnish with lettuce, grated carrots, tomato slices and red onions. Serve salsa separately.

Tips & Tricks
  • Add a pinch of sugar to the salsa to balance the acidity of tomatoes and enhance flavors.
  • For a healthier version, bake plantains in oven at 200°C for 20-25 minutes instead of frying.
  • Serve this dish hot accompanied by fresh lemonade or local beer for an authentic Peruvian experience.
