ROASTED CHICKEN STOCK | CALDO OSCURO DE POLLO

Slow cooked Lamb and peppers stew | Cordero al chilindrón

This dish was commonly found in northern Spain and was always cooked in the spring with the new lamb season. It’s one of those ugly brown but very tasty slow-cooked stews Spain is famous for.

Today you hardly ever find it in restaurants and only makes it as a family meal cooked mainly by grandmas.
