Introduction

The title of this dish was intended to conjure an idea of a chicken dish with Spanish a flavour but not completely authentic, in the manner of a 1970's cookbook where authenticity was lent to a dish by setting it next to a prop donkey or sombrero. This is a great family dish which is hearty and rustic and great served with rice and crusty bread.
