Aji de gallina is a delicious Peruvian classic - slightly spicy and bright yellow from the famous aji amarillo peppers, and rich from the unusual cream sauce made with ground walnuts.This dish is traditionally served over rice, with boiled yellow potatoes and black olives.You can buy frozen yellow aji peppers (they often look more orange than yellow) at Latin food markets.You can also find jarred aji amarillo paste, which works well too.If you can't find aji amarillo peppers, then substitute another hot chile pepper and add a yellow bell pepper for color.
