Perdiz guisado

My wife spent last week in Puerto Rico. She remarked how good the cuisine was. I did a little Google fu and found some Caribbean recipes to try. This was the first, using last Fridays bounty.

It was fantastic. Next time I’ll go a little heavier on the seasoning, and I forgot to slice up an avocado to go with it

How to Make Puerto Rican Pollo Guisado — the Most Amazing Braised Chicken Stew

Pollo guisado is a delicious chicken dish with tons of flavor and juicy meat that falls off the bone. Various versions are popular in Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic. Our recipe is for a Puerto Rican version, which is known for the addition of green olives and the use of sofrito.

I made my own adobo and sofrito. I couldn’t find the right chile peppers so I substituted Anaheims.

Looks dang good.

A few years back, we took a family trip to Florida to do the Disney World thing. The best part of that trip was a totally random stop at a Puerto Rican restaurant where we ate mofongo.
