Peruvian Chicken

Pass the yellow Peruvian peppers
Even the cheese, no need to measure 
Rinse the chicken and boil it all
Unless you’re a vegan, then we’ve hit a wall
Veggies or fruits? No need for those
It’s a tasty dish the whole family chose
All kinds of laughter fill the kitchen air
No screens in sight, just love and joy to share

Can’t forget to blend up the sauce
Hot spicy cheese is never a loss
In the rice pot we cook up white rice
Chicken is ready, it’s smelling quite nice
Kiss every boring chicken recipe goodbye 
Even Gordon Ramsay rates this dish pretty high
Nostalgic family recipes I’ll treasure til I die

Congrats in my.contest. You did really well. You got scored lower for not making the first letter of each line stand out.
