Ayam taliwang

Ayam Taliwang is a spicy Indonesian grilled chicken dish originating in Taliwang, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. Although Ayam Taliwang is said to be a dish favoured by the Sasak nobility, Abdul Hamid claims to have invented the dish in 1970. It is named after Karang Taliwang in Mataram, the capital of Lombok. Ayam Taliwang is made with chicken cut and cleaned prior to grilling. Once it has been grilled halfway, it is removed from the grill and tenderized with a pestle. It is then dipped in cooking oil; after several seconds in the oil, it is put in a spicy sauce of garlic, chili, and shrimp paste. It is then fried or grilled to order.
