Tuesday Food

Food:

  1. Pollo al Ajillo
    Don't forget to saute the chicken skin first! (I mistakenly threw it away this time. :-()
    Roughly cube & season chicken breast with salt, pepper, olive oil. Saute & add chopped garlic, cayena chile peppers (seeded), pimenton, a little cayenne. Deglaze with brandy, add white wine, sherry wine vinegar. Add stock & cover, simmer. Finish with a little more garlic & garnish with chopped parsley

  2. Sauteed Baby Swiss Chard with cumin, mustard seed, tumeric, and chopped garlic



Wine:

  1. Vizcarra 2002 Senda del Oro
    Not bad--a little CRW/funky on the nose, fairly acidic, but there's some
    good red fruit. A decent tapa-wine, but not the best example. 100% Tempranillo.
