We are fortunate to have the fusion of innovative and traditional food. And it is that, no matter how much we invent, lifelong recipes also continue to play an essential role in our kitchen. Here we leave you a selection of dishes worthy of being “grandmother’s kitchen”.
Chilindrón chicken
Ingredients:
600 grams of chicken, an onion, two peeled and crushed tomatoes, a red and a green pepper, two cloves of garlic, 100ml of white wine, salt, black pepper and bay leaves.
Elaboration:
We start by seasoning the chicken pieces. When we have them ready, we heat a little olive oil in a pan and brown them. Then we remove and reserve them.
In a saucepan we put the onion and the minced garlic cloves over a low heat with a drizzle of oil. While they are beginning to be made, we chop the peppers after removing the seeds and add them to the mixture.
Next, we add the fried tomato, salt, pepper and the bay leaves. We continue cooking over medium heat for 15 or 20 minutes until our sauce is well done.
Finally we add the chicken and the wine to the casserole. After a couple of minutes, cover for 15 or 20 minutes until the meat has been cooked inside and the sauce is thicker.
Rabbit with garlic

Peel the five garlic cloves and put them in a saucepan with a little olive oil to brown over medium heat. We cut the rabbit meat into pieces, eliminating the remains of skin and fat. We salt and pepper them and go through flour.

Chop the garlic, onion and red pepper. We fry it with the bay leaf over medium heat and add the paprika. While it does a few more minutes, we are cutting each hand into four portions and we add them to the sauce.
Then we raise the heat and add the vinegar, wine and spices. With all the mixture prepared, our dish should cook for about 50 minutes over medium heat. Care must be taken when handling the little hands so as not to break them.
