CAUSA RELLENA CON POLLO: YELLOW POTATOES WITH CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Place the chopped onion in a small bowl with the juice of 1 lime and season lightly with salt. Set aside to marinate while the potatoes cook.
• Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water until soft. Peel the potatoes once they are cool enough to handle, then pass them through the finest disk of a potato ricer (or thoroughly mash them). Set aside.
• If using a fresh chili pepper, remove the seeds and coarsely chop the pepper. Place in a food processor or blender, along with the juice of the remaining 3 limes, the garlic, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Process until smooth.
• Stir the lime/chili mixture into the potatoes, adding it in parts and tasting after each addition, until potatoes are seasoned to your liking. Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons vegetable oil and season potatoes with more salt and pepper if needed. If using the jarred chili pepper paste, add the paste to potatoes 1 tablespoon at a time, until potatoes are seasoned as desired.
• To poach the chicken, fill a pot large enough to fit the chicken breasts in one layer with a couple inches of cold water; season with salt and pepper. Add chicken breasts and cook at a low simmer until just cooked through about 15 minutes. Shred the cooked chicken, place in a bowl, and mix with the mayonnaise and the marinated onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Generously oil a springform pan with vegetable oil. Press half of the mashed potato mixture into the bottom of the pan. Use a small offset spatula or knife to spread the potato mixer into an even layer. Cover with the chicken salad in a smooth layer. Top the chicken salad with slices of avocado. Layer the other half of the potato mixture on top and smooth the potatoes with a knife or offset spatula.
• Decorate the top with parsley leaves, slices of hard-boiled eggs and sliced olives if desired. Serve chilled.
