Chicken / Tapas Online

Pollo en PepitoriaBy tapasonline

Chicken in saffron and almond sauce - a very traditional dish with an obviously Moorish influence, it is normally classed as “one of Grandma’s recipes”. Flat-leaf parsley is an optional garnish.

Pollo con Almendras y SetasBy tapasonlineChicken with almonds and mushrooms - this is a traditional Mallorcan dish. You can use any combination of wild mushrooms, shitake, oyster or even chestnut mushrooms.

Pollo Empanado con EspeciasBy tapasonlineSpicy chicken goujons - chicken goujons are always a favourite and the hint of spice and herbs makes these a bit special. A deep-fryer is ideal for cooking them, but if you don’t have one, a heavy based pan with a good depth of oil will be fine.

Pollo al ChilindrónBy tapasonlineChicken with tomatoes and peppers - this classic hearty chicken stew comes from the north of Spain and is surprisingly quick and easy to make.

Pollo Rebozado con Miel y MostazaBy tapasonlineChicken in batter drizzled with honey and mustard - this is a variation on a traditional dish from Catalonia. There are many recipes for batter, so if you have your own favourite, by all means use it. Do ensure that the chicken is cooked through before serving.

Pollo a la RiojanaBy tapasonlineRioja-style chicken with chorizo in white wine - as the name implies, this dish originated in La Rioja in northern Spain. If you don’t have any piquillo peppers, you can roast and peel a bell pepper, or simply de-seed, slice and fry with the chorizo.

Pollo con PatatasBy tapasonlineChicken and potatoes in tomato sauce - a simple one-pot dish which is tasty and comforting at any time.

Pinchitos de PolloBy tapasonlineMini kebabs of marinated chicken - these little kebabs make great tapas or are really useful as part of a self-service buffet. They will benefit from being marinated, covered, for up to 12 hours in the ‘fridge, but if you don’t have time or space, they can be used straight away. The dry spices and salt can be pre-mixed and kept in a container for future use.

Pollo a la CremaBy tapasonlineChicken with mushrooms in a cream and brandy sauce - chicken partners with mushrooms in this deliciously creamy dish. Of course, if you don't like mushrooms, you can omit them, perhaps substituting something else, such as green pepper. Remember to have some bread handy to mop out the pan.
