Arroz Chaufa con Pollo – Chinese-Peruvian Fried Rice. One of the most widely consumed dishes from the Chinese-Peruvian fusion cuisine known as Chifa. Arroz Chaufa con Pollo is a delicious meal of chicken, rice, and eggs, with ginger, soy sauce, spring onions, garlic and peppers.
In the mid-1800s Chinese immigrants from Canton came to Peru to replace African slaves (after slavery was abolished) in sugar plantations around the Peruvian coasts. The origin of the name of the dish also comes straight from Cantonese, since chaufan literally means “fried rice”.
