Pepián is a thick meat stew from Guatemala and one of the oldest and most recognizable dishes of Guatemalan cuisine, reflecting influences from both the country's colonial past and its indigenous cuisine. The stew is thickened with gourd seeds and can be made with beef or chicken, with traditional recipes including tomatillo, tomato and hot chili. Guatemalan restaurants in the United States usually consider the dish to be of Maya origin, and it remains a popular street food in Guatemalan cities.
