Aji De Gallina Peruvian Potatoes #SP5 image

Official Contest Entry: Simply Potatoes 5Fix. This is a popular potato side dish in Peru that is pleasantly slightly spicy. I substituted Aji Amarillo paste with with pureed sliced nachos jalapeno peppers, but if you can find this paste in the Spanish sections of regular grocery stores, it will taste much better. Adjust amount to your liking.
