Pollo En Escabeche


From " The Spanish Cookbook" by Barbara Norman. this book might be a little difficult to find, it was printed in 1966.

Serves 4

1 3 pound chicken
1/4 cup olive oil
4 whole, peeled garlic cloves
1 lemon
1/2 orange
10 whole pepper grains
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup vinegar
2 cups dry white wine
salt to taste

Wipe chicken thoroughly. Heat olive oil and slowly brown the chicken in a deep earthenware casserole. Fry chicken only until golden and do not allow it to form a crust.

Pour over the fried chicken the following marinade: wine, vinegar, bay leaves, garlic cloves, pepper grains, lemon and orange, sliced , peel and all, and salt to taste.

Simmer chicken in marinade for 1 hour or until joints move easily. Keep covered with liquid at all times, adding wine and vinegar in the same proportions( 4 to 1)
as needed.

When cooked, store chicken covered with marinade in an earthen container in a cool place. Serve cold in sauce, surrounded by fluted slices of fresh orange and lemon.

It's a good dish to have on hand for a hot day.
