My cooking tips for

the famous Spanish

peasant dish

Arroz con Pollo

Pointers

Chicken - Select thighs and drumsticks from a small to medium-sized chicken.

Garlic - Unless you proceed promptly from step 10 to step 11, your garlic will burn and become bitter.

Heat - Use low heat in step 14 to avoid scorching the pot.

Lid - Preserve steam in the pot by not lifting the lid during the cooking process in step 14.

Affinities

Beverage - Serve beer or a young, dry medium-bodied white or light-bodied red wine.

Variations

Chicken breasts - Use chicken breasts exclusively, or use them in combination with the thighs and drumsticks.

Smoked pork products - Add diced chorizo or ham with the onions in step 10.

Vegetables - Add green vegetables such as peas.

Other ingredients - Substitute rabbit or shellfish (lobster, shrimp, mussels, and clams are popular choices) for the chicken. Or combine a medley of these ingredients for a paella.
