Ayam Bumbu Gurih

{{totalReview}}
Classic Indonesian spices and herbs make this chicken dish extra delightful, especially if you let the juicy chunks of meat marinate overnight to absorb all the flavors. It’s the perfect Asian addition to any BBQ or grill dinner that you can recreate with ease. Serve with sambal for an extra kick and pair with curry and rice for a finger-licking good meal.
