Cause stuffed is a typical recipe from Peru, mostly consumed as a starter dish, as it is served in small quantities, but in this recipe you can eat it as a main dish if you like.

If you don't know how to make a Causa from Lima, Arianna Reyes Taquio shares with RecetasGratis.net a recipe for Causa stuffed with chicken in her style but equally tasty. Do not miss it!

Ingredients to make Stuffed Causa:

 2 kilograms of potatoes
 1 chicken breast
 4 Lemons
 ½ cup of Carrot
 ½ cup of Alverjas (peas)
 ½ cup of parsley finely chopped
 ½ cup of liquefied yellow pepper
 Salt to taste
 Mayonnaise to taste

How to make Stuffed Cause:

The first step in making this stuffed chicken cause is to prepare the potatoes. To do this, first we parboil the potatoes and when they are fully cooked, carefully remove the skin as it will be hot, but it will be faster to peel them.

Now we mash the potatoes and add the juice of the 2 lemons and the salt to taste, we also add the 1/2 cup of chopped parsley along with the previously fried yellow pepper. And we mix everything very well so that our Lima cause is very tasty.

We continue with the preparation of the filling of the chicken cause. First we cook the breast and then we thin the chicken, then we add the carrot and the previously boiled peas, and now we add the juice of the 2 lemons that we have left over.

We add salt and if you wish, you can add the mayonnaise all at once in this filling from the Lima cause.

Add the potato and the chicken filling. In a refractory put the first layer of potato that we prepare, press it well, now we put all the filling on top of the first layer, and cover it with the second layer of potatoes.

And to eat! If you want, decorate the cause stuffed with some olives, vegetables, boiled eggs or some parsley leaves when serving and add a little more mayonnaise sauce and if you like, also accompany it with white rice.
