Hello, this is Chef John from foodwishes.com with terrasco chicken. That's right, this incredible South Americanstyle barbecue is more commonly associated with beef. But the chicken version is amazing. And since I was looking for something to pair with a chimmy cherry potato salad, I thought this would be the perfect choice.
