Cuisine Latin American South American Peruvian Arroz con Pollo (Peruvian Style) 4.2 (6) 6 Reviews 3 Photos This is an original Peruvian recipe for cilantro rice with veggies and chicken. I really like to eat this with avocado seasoned with lime and salt, or with onions seasoned with lime, salt, and pepper. Delicious!
