You need to include 3-4 cloves of garlic, minced, in the sauce. That’s how Chino Bandito does it.

With Chino’s change in address and only a limited menu from the current food truck, I was missing my emerald chicken! Thanks so much for making this recipe available. Making it at home is not quite the same, but it definitely has the right flavor! Great with sides of white rice and refried beans.

One of my favorites from Chino Bandito. So happy to find the recipe online.
