For an extra smoky flavor, consider using wood chips like mesquite or hickory while grilling. Adjust the amount of jalapeños in the sauce to control the level of spiciness. Serve with traditional Peruvian sides like rice, beans, and a fresh salad. If you don't have a grill, you can bake the chicken in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 30-40 minutes, or until cooked through.
