Argentinean Garlic Chicken With Corn, Tomato and Parsley Sauce

Buster's friend's Note:

Fresh, mildly spicy & very refreshing. Plan to use on grilled chicken quarters - skin on & bone in! (Of course adjusting the heat & cooking time for the different meat - longer lower basically). Would be nice alongside Spiced Rice (Marsala Bhat) or Potato Salad With Peas & Mint . Received in an email from Dalton Harris via gourmet-recipes-from-around-the-world. Thanks Dalton!

Delicious chicken dish! The chicken was nicely spiced but the chimichurri/tomato/corn sauce really made this dish - it's fantastic. I don't care for onions so left them out, otherwise made as directed. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
