Creating the Ultimate Peruvian Grilled Chicken is straightforward if you follow these clear steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, mix together olive oil, white vinegar, soy sauce, paprika, minced garlic, cumin, black pepper, salt, and lime juice. Stir until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it’s well-coated. Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight for better flavor.
3. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are glowing and ashy.
4. Grill the Chicken: Remove chicken from the marinade and discard any leftover marinade. Place the chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for about 7-10 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
5. Rest and Garnish: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

These steps will guide you in creating flavorful and juicy grilled chicken that embodies the spirit of Peruvian cuisine.
