Spanish Chicken Stew - Estofado de Pollo
Try this flavorful chicken stew, typical of stews eaten in the region of Castilla, where the winters are chilly and food warms you from the inside out. Served with home-fried potatoes and warm, crusty French bread and a simple green salad for a filling, delicious meal.
INGREDIENTS:
1 whole Fryer, Cut up or 8-10 pieces of chicken
¼ cup Extra Virgin Spanish Olive Oil
2 cups of white mushrooms, sliced
4-5 Large Cloves of Garlic, unpeeled
1 ½ cups dry white wine
1 large yellow onion, coarsely chopped
1 medium sweet red pepper
2 peeled carrots, cut into large pieces
1 16 oz. Can Green Peas, drained
salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION:
Remove excess fat and skin from chicken, rinse in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. In a large, deep frying pan or skillet, heat olive oil and brown chicken for 5-7 minutes on medium high heat.
Add mushrooms, garlic, onion, carrots and sweet red pepper to pan and sauté until mushrooms are softened and onion is translucent, approximately 5 minutes on medium heat.
Add white wine to skillet and turn heat to high until broth boils, then reduce and simmer until chicken is cooked thoroughly and liquid is reduced a bit and thickens, 20-30 minutes. Check the pan while chicken is cooking and add more broth or water if necessary.
Just before serving, add green peas to pan and stir well. Serve with home-fried potatoes.
Note: Spaniards like to use their wonderful, crusty French-style bread to “mop up” the sauce.

Pechugas de Pollo con Salsa de Nueces - Chicken Breasts with Walnut Sauce
The more traditional version of this recipe uses a whole roasted chicken, with foie gras placed between the skin and meat. Our version is less fatty, using boneless, skinless chicken breasts stuffed with pate, but it is just a tasty and takes less time to prepare and serve. The sauce is made of ground walnuts, tomatoes, onions and brandy.
From Lisa & Tony Sierra
INGREDIENTS:
4-6 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
5 oz. Chicken Pate
1/3 cup Raisins
1 Clove Garlic
1/2 cup Walnuts
2 Sprigs Parsley
1 White or Yellow Onion
1 Tsp. Flour
1 cup Chicken Broth
2 Tbsp Tomato Sauce
2 Tbsp Brandy
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION:
Serves 4-6
Prepare Chicken and Dish
Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts. Oil the bottom of a large (13” x 9”) glass baking dish. Position rack in middle of oven. Heat the oven to 325F degrees.
Stuff the Breasts and Bake
Coarsely chop the raisins and mince the garlic.
In a small mixing bowl, mash the chicken pate and add the raisins, garlic and 1 sprig of parsley. Add the 1 tbsp of brandy. Mix well.
Lay a breast out on a cutting board or plate, cut side up. Using a teaspoon spread the pate mixture over the breast. Roll the breast up with pate inside and secure it using 1-2 toothpicks. Place in baking dish. Repeat for each breast. Drizzle breasts with a small amount of olive oil or brush on with a pastry brush. Sprinkle with salt. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and place in oven on rack. Bake for approximately 45 minutes. Check for doneness.
Prepare the Sauce
While the chicken is roasting, peel and chop the onion. Finely chop the remaining sprig of parsley and set aside. Place walnuts in food processor or grinder and grind finely.
In a medium size frying pan, sauté the onion in a few teaspoons of olive oil over medium heat for approximately 8 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour and stir constantly. Add the tomato sauce and continue to stir for 1 minute. Stir in the chicken broth gradually. Add the rest of the chopped parsley and the other tbsp of brandy. Cook on low heat until the sauce is reduced and it thickens.
Add Sauce to Chicken and Serve
When done, remove chicken from oven and place on individual plates, spooning sauce over the top of each breast. Serve with fried potatoes.
