POLLO A LA CREMA
My favorite dish at our local Mexican Restaurant. Chicken, mushrooms & onions in a spicy cream sauce, YUM! Very rich, but so delish! A real comfort food. I have been playing with the recipe for some time, just trying to get close to what they serve. I think I'm finally as close as I can get. 5/30/08 Update: If you can find Mexican Crema (dairy case at my grocer) it is thicker and works better than cream. This is also good served over rice or noodles. ***I discovered that my Paprika had gotten old and lost strength, when I bought new, I also had to reduce the amount. The recipe now reflects the reduced amount.

Steps:

- Add cream, mushrooms, paprika & chicken base.
- Bring to a boil and simmer for 5-7 minutes or until chicken is tender.
- Remove from heat and stir in sour cream. Mixture will be somewhat thin, but should be a creamy texture like the consistency of a white sauce.
- Serve hot with warmed flour tortillas and Spanish Rice.
CALDO DE POLLO (MEXICAN CHICKEN SOUP)
I recently came back from Del Mar, CA, and a few of the Mexican restaurants served Sonoran-style Caldo De Pollo. I attempted to mimic this recipe as closely as I could to match the delicious soup I ate there. I'm open to suggestions to make this recipe better as this is my first time attempting it.

POLLO EN CREMA: SPICY SALVADORIAN CHICKEN SOUP
from Chef John over at foodwishes.blogspot.com, purportedly a rendition of his favorite Salvadorian dish from Aunt Mary's restaurant in San Fran. DH just keeps getting better and better at making this, but I got curious enough about the nutrition facts to keep it here on zaar. Beware: even with cream in the title, this is no soup for sissies. Those chile oils swirling atop your stewpot are lovely, but deceptively spicy. Skim them if you like, but it'll still be muy picante!

Steps:
- Place whole chicken in the bottom of a large stewpot. Pour in chicken broth and water.
- Add the sour cream, chopped onion, peppers, jalapenos, tomatoes, garlic, and your spices. Don't worry about the sour cream curdling--it will smooth out in the last cooking step.
- Cover and simmer on low for 1 hour.
- Lift the lid, turn the chicken over, and recover. Simmer for another 30 minutes.
- Remove chicken from simmering stock (crema). Allow to cool.
- In the meantime, turn up the heat under the crema to high. When it's boiling you may skim off the fat/ super spicy oils.
- Cut the cooled chicken into serving pieces. Make sure to pull little bits from the bones as well. Put chicken pieces back into the pot with the hot crema.
- Stir in a large handful of chopped cilantro.
- Serve this beautifully simple soup with Spanish rice and a side of beans.

POLLO SAN SALVADOR
This is a surprisingly easy Central American dish to create. My wife, one of my toughest critics, loves this simple chicken and sauce combo.
