Pollo Espanol Spanish Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F Cover a large, half-sheet baking pan with foil. Except for the 1 cup of wine and lemon wedges, mix all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Add 3 tbsps of the wine and the salt and pepper. Toss everything together again and spread out on the pan, scraping all the seasonings out of the bowl.
• Roast for 20 minutes, then pour half the remaining wine over the chicken and vegetables. Reduce the oven to 325 F and roast 20 minutes and pour the rest of the wine over the ingredients.
• Roast another 30 minutes, occasionally turning pieces and basting them with pan juices, or until a thermometer inserted into a thigh reads 165 degrees. Fire up the broiler and brown the chicken and vegetables a few minutes on each side.
• Take the pan out of the oven, lightly cover with foil and allow to rest 10-15 minutes. Pile the chicken on a warm platter, decorate with lemon wedges and serve with white or brown rice.

Steps:

• Wash chicken breasts, drain, and season on both sides with salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder.
• Place seasoned chicken breasts in crock pot.
• Mix tomato paste and beer together and pour evenly over chicken breasts.
• Add olives with liquid.
• Cover and cook on low for 7-9 hours.
• Serve each chicken breast over a small mound of prepared noodles, and dish sauce (with olives) over each serving. YUM!
• NOTE: You can also substitute 3/4 cup (6 oz.) chicken stock instead of beer. Makes it a bit more savory and seems to be more tasty for kids that way -- .

Steps:

• Spray deep skillet with cooking spray or lightly oil (May use a couple of TBS. Oil if needed to keep meat from sticking but not necessary if using Teflon coated pan.).
• Season meat with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Brown on both sides.
• Add vegetables, tomatoes and tomato sauce.
• Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, or until meat is tender.

Steps:

• Peel all garlic cloves. Pour chicken stock into a medium pot or sauce pan, and place garlic into brother. Cover and simmer on low for approximately 20 minutes.
• Peel the lemon, removing white pulp. Cut the lemon in thin slices. Set aside.
• Pour olive oil into a large frying pan and heat on medium. Brown chicken on both sides. Remove and place into the bottom of an ovenproof pot, and set aside.
• Heat oven to 375F degrees.
• Reduce the heat to low, and add the flour to the frying pan where the chicken was fried. Scrape the bottom of the pan while stirring, frying the flour. Add the wine and continue to stir and scrape the bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the chicken broth and stir constantly, as the sauce thickens. Taste and adjust salt.
• Pour the thickened sauce over the chicken. Sprinkle the garlic cloves around the dish. Arrange lemon slices on chicken.
• Bake the chicken in oven for 30-40 minutes. Remove and garnish with parsley or basil. Serve with fried potatoes or rice.
• Note: Use chicken with skin on or skinless pieces. If using skinless pieces, chicken will tend to stick to pan more easily when browning, so use lower heat and turn more often.

Steps:

• Add salt and pepper to flour.
• Coat chicken livers in seasoned flour.
