Pollo San Salvador Recipes

Steps:

• In a big skillet, melt the butter and olive oil. Sauté the onion until soft and golden.
• Blend the Worcestershire and hot sauces into the grape juice and vinegar. Add to the sautéed onions along with the tomato paste and herbs.
• Simmer over very low heat until the flavors blend.
• Grill or broil the chicken separately and mix with the sauce. Heat through and serve.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and black pepper to taste.
• Dredge both sides of chicken through the flour, shaking off excess.
• Melt the butter over med heat in a large heavy bottomed pot.
• Add the chicken and cook over med-high heat turning once, until both sides are well browned, but chicken is not quite cooked through (about 6-7 minutes per side).
• Remove chicken from the pot and keep warm.
• Pour the chicken broth into the pot and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Place the green salsa, garlic, jalapeño, cilantro, and cumin into the pot; bring to a boil.
• Just as the sauce begins to boil, reduce the heat to obtain a slow simmer. Add the chicken breasts back into the sauce and spoon sauce over each piece of chicken.
• Continue to cook until chicken is cooked through and tender (about 15 minutes).
• Taste the sauce and add more salt and pepper if desired.
• Place chicken on a serving platter and spoon sauce over each piece.
• Top each piece of chicken with a heaping tablespoon of sour cream and sprinkle some chopped green onion over the sour cream.

Steps:

• Place whole chicken in the bottom of a large stewpot. Pour in chicken broth and water.
• Add the sour cream, chopped onion, peppers, jalapenos, tomatoes, garlic, and your spices. Don't worry about the sour cream curdling--it will smooth out in the last cooking step.
• Cover and simmer on low for 1 hour.
• Lift the lid, turn the chicken over, and recover. Simmer for another 30 minutes.
• Remove chicken from simmering stock (crema). Allow to cool.
• In the meantime, turn up the heat under the crema to high. When it's boiling you may skim off the fat/ super spicy oils.
• Cut the cooled chicken into serving pieces. Make sure to pull little bits from the bones as well. Put chicken pieces back into the pot with the hot crema.
• Stir in a large handful of chopped cilantro.
• Serve this beautifully simple soup with Spanish rice and a side of beans.

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken pieces; pat dry with paper toweling. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the chicken pieces in hot oil on all sides for 15 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet.
• Add the onion to the drippings in the skillet; cook until tender but not brown. Drain off the fat. Return the chicken to the skillet.
• Combine wine, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic powder, coriander, and red pepper. Pour over the chicken in the skillet. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 25 minutes.
• After 25 minutes, stir in green pepper, prunes, olives, tomato paste, and capers. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes more or till the chicken is tender. Skim off the fat. Transfer chicken and sauce to a heated serving platter and enjoy!
