Welcome to our country!! thanks for share this typical and basic dish here.. I hope you could share more ecuadorian recipes to enjoy.. I wish you the best in Ecuador!! 😃
My husband is Ecuadorian. He said your recipe is spot-on. Well done! Looks delicious! I can almost smell it lol =D And you are right. Ecuadorian chicken recipes hardly ever use breasts! Always dark meats! =D Love from FL
You haven't tried my Mom's special Seco de Pollo with boneless chicken breast pieces. It is definitely deelish and she makes her own refrito sauce, or Ecuadorian sofrito!!
Mandy that looks great! I have some suggestions on Alternatives of what you made in this recipe that could help the viewers here. You can make achiote oil by putting a half a cup of oil 2 to tablespoons of achiote seeds in a saucepan on medium-low heat heat it up once the oil starts to sizzle a bit the color will release you want to be very careful and watch it closely or the achiote seeds will turn green and then you will have to throw it out. then strain the oil in a sieve. Also for the coloring Ahi para seco you can use Goya Sazon with culantro it has the same color and will give the same results.
Aciete de Achiote is Annato Oil. Achiote is Spanish for Annato. Filipinos use achiote to color food and bring out taste of chicken. A popular barbeque chicken food chain in the Philippines market their Annato Oil mixture as Chicken Oil.
OMG! I was just at my friends house & learned about this for the first time & I came home & looked up Ecuadorian food and YOU popped up! 😂 I love your videos & I trust your recipes & methods.
Omg Mandy this looks so good! I have never seen an Ecuadorian recipe before and the different techniques are so interesting. I'm definitely making this!
Looks delicious! Must of Latin people use achiote for cooking to give color to the food. You can buy the achiote seed and heat it up with oil for a few minutes to get that nice red color. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Thanks for share this ecuadorian receipe. Only one suggestion. The "Seco de Pollo" is without potato. You prepared "Estofado de pollo" or chicken stew.
I have been to Ecuador and loved the food, people and scenery, your chicken looks amazingly yummy, I had green plantain balls there that were out of this world, I love your videos,
Encocado de pollo, seco de chivas and ceviche de camarones were my favorite Ecuadorian meals. You should also try lomo saltado, its Peruvian chifa cuisine, but you can probably find it in Ecuador. I'm so jealous, I loved Ecuador, I can't wait to go back
I love your recipe is similar to Panamanian stew chicken. I eat this dish a lot, is a staple in Panama, along with the rice and the fried sweet plantains.
Thanks for sharing this recipe. It's great to see you sharing what you've learned while on travel. Keep up the good work, and have fun on your adventure!
Usually the chicken is seasoned with the achote not paprika and we use naranjilla instead of orange juice but other than that, very traditional, looks yum
Very good and happy you like Ecuadorian food , I am Ecuadorian, a great tip for Ecuadorian food learn for them Do change the recipes it not the same taste! Love 🍵
Have just subbed to your channel, have started to look through your vids. The second one said 26 subs or so , now thousands. Love all your recipes and adapt for a diabetic in the family, yummy yum yum. Thank you from the UK.
When I was growing up in Guayaquil, we made our own achiote oil from seeds and vegetable oil. It's not difficult, but if you can't find the achiote seeds, you should use saffron oil.
Thanks for your video. Perfect timing. I've got chicken and now this recipe. Excellent! If you are ever looking for another home or somewhere to open one of your many future restaurants, Richmond in Vancouver B.C. welcomes you... Thumbs up as always. Happy feasting to you Mandy.
Good morning Mandy! Wow, this looks so delicious! I'm sitting here drinking my coffee and wishing I had that plate here in front of me now! Lol Be safe in your travels and can't wait to see the next Ecuadorian dish. Have a nice day! Hugs from Texas! : )
I haven't really tried any "authentic" Ecuadorian food...never heard of it but I will have to look it up. Thanks for the tip!! Have a great weekend! : )
Hi i loved your method of preparation of this dish. You are missing the secret ingredient. Mustard! Its a secret bc most people would think its not something that should go in this dish but i garuntee that if you use about 3 tablespoons of mustard when cooking you will be transported to heaven. You could probably use mustard powder but mustard is a little but easier to find. Thats the single flavor that makes this dish unique. My grandmother used it and its her most memorable dish
FYI fun fact for anyone who (like me) could never understand why anyone would eat cilantro. If it tastes like dish soap to you too, then you are allergic to it. I stumbled onto this in some "you may not know it's an allergy" article. I never knew....but now it makes sense. That said, this looks great. Long as I leave the dish soap, um cilantro, out of it ;) lol
Great video, i love your style of editing, are you going to visit other countries in South America? Peru has great food, and Argentina has the best meat
Great recipe just one thing the Seco does not have potatoes because it will turn it into a stew. I know people from other regions of the country prepares the Seco adding potatoes but the original recipe does not call for it; Great job.
Can you cook something else from Ecuador 🇪🇨 please my girlfriend is from Vietnam and I’m from Ecuador. She would love to learn something else about Ecuador food thanks 🙏
Good thing you are so talented at cooking EVERYTHING!!! Maybe you can try the US, esp after the next election (sigh). Several of my neighbors had no problem coming here, but that was a few years back. But hope you are happy in your Ecuador adventure!
@@SoupedUpRecipes Come back to the coast and try Second de Chico. By the way, seco comes from the word secundo. The main dish of a typical lunch (almuerzo typico) and the primero is usually a tasty and filling soup. Great soups here too. Now come back to the coast and show us how to do fish!
Thank you for watching. The reason I move to Ecuador is that it is hard to find a country that is easy for a chinese citizen to live there and Ecuador is the easy one.
Sidney Mathious Go to a Latin or west Indian grocery. You could also find ingredients online like Amazon or Google Latin grocery. Nothing packaged is difficult to get anymore.
Hi, nice videos you have. Really inspirational for cooking homemade food. I want to ask what oven did you use in the Char Siu recipe video? I want to have a small oven like yours so can bake food with small amount of kitchen space, and i'm hoping for oven that can microwave food. I hope you reply to my question, thanks so much.
Hey, the oven I used is a Chinese brand (It is really bad and I would not recommend it) You can look for other brands such as Midea, Petrus, they all have small size oven.

Use lager or pilsen beer. The alcohol evaporates and you are left with a smooth flavour. Dark beers are going to make it bitter so it's a better idea to not use that.
NIce presentation. However, traditional "SECO" of pollo, chivo, etc. DOESN'T have potatoes. If you add potatoes as you did, now is a stew no seco. Your stew looks delicious though.
Yes. I did Souped Up Recipes a lot. I think she's a darling, but the vernacular is off sometimes. I love her youtube channel and look forward to more videos. If she had a producer, she would be rocking the big time. Think of Martin Yan.
Koji 888: Yes, it is toooooo serious. It doesn't matter. I just consider it a compliment and retain poise, which you do, Koji 888. I have done this chicken stew. Enjoy if you do prepare it. Mandy is amazing! We love you!

It is easy to make achiote oil by letting annatto seeds steep in hot oil. The seeds are usually available from Asian stores.
Good to know it is available in Asian stores. Thanks

That a lot of cilantro used. Looks yum!
Can you cook something else from Ecuador 🇪🇨 please my girlfriend is from Vietnam and I’m from Ecuador. She would love to learn something else about Ecuador food thanks 🙏
So far good
Oh no! You cooked Ecuadorian foods with chopsticks. lol. Good job
LOL! I stayed in an Airbnb. I didn't have any tool to cook. A Chinese restaurant gave me a pair of chopsticks
I found it. The stuff my dad makes. Our English ass called it yellow chicken yellow rice
It’s look so delicious !
Somehow chicken does not take that long to cook ?
You can cook it less amount of time. But I like the chicken to be soft=)
Is there Chifan restaurants in Ecuador as well as in Peru?
LOL! Most of them only have fried rice. Not really Chinese food.
They found a lot of dead dogs in a chifa in Perú.
Good thing you are so talented at cooking EVERYTHING!!! Maybe you can try the US, esp after the next election (sigh). Several of my neighbors had no problem coming here, but that was a few years back. But hope you are happy in your Ecuador adventure!

ALL you need is Ecuador!!! Enjoy it
Achiote is also called annatto.
A useful tip.
Great recipe. How you moved from China to Ecuador? Just curious question. Thank you so much for your delicious recipe. I heart you 💓. God bless.
Thank you for watching. The reason I move to Ecuador is that it is hard to find a country that is easy for a chinese citizen to live there and Ecuador is the easy one.
Souped Up Recipes thank you for your answer. Again, thanks.
Souped Up Recipes why is it hard to find ? What problems do chinese people in other countries? Just curious
Der Duft des Paradieses xenophobia is rampant and a lot of countries have restrictions depending on where your from
That dish is looking great and I would love to have it, but it probably would be difficult to find a few of the ingredients here in the United States.

Mixing beer is it not bitter for kids?
Use lager or pilsen beer. The alcohol evaporates and you are left with a smooth flavour. Dark beers are going to make it bitter so it's a better idea to not use that.
Daniel OC thank you so much david for your kind reply
Those are chicken legs not thighs - looks really good.
LOL! Thank you for correcting me=)
That is the leg - no thigh attached.....
A leg is not a thigh.
🥰🥰🥰
Correction--FYI.. Those are not Thighs, They are Legs....Smile , Ninette Bird- The Caribbean Wife.
Im a recovering alcoholic i cant use beer
You can use non alcoholic beer.
Chicken thighs.???
