Locro de gallina is a traditional Andean chicken soup, particularly popular in Bolivia and in some parts of Peru. The primary ingredient is chicken, usually the whole chicken cut into pieces. Other key ingredients typically include potatoes (which provide the stew its thick consistency) and corn or maize. The flavor base of the stew is typically made from sautéed onions, garlic, and aji peppers. Cumin, oregano, and cilantro (coriander) are commonly used to season the stew, giving it a unique and aromatic flavor profile. Some versions of Locro de Gallina are made creamier with the addition of milk, cream, or even cheese. This gives the stew a rich and velvety texture. Locro de gallina is typically served hot, often garnished with fresh cilantro or parsley., and accompanied with rice or avocado slices.
