Guatemalan recipes authentic

Fusing an intriguing blend of ancient Mayan dishes with American and Spanish influences, Guatemalan foods make up one of Central America's most colorful and hearty cuisines.

This traditional Spanish chicken stew is a one-pot comfort dish featuring chicken thighs slow-braised in a velvety tomato sauce of white wine, oregano, cumin, thyme and paprika. It gets an extra hit of deep, rich flavour from garlic-rich chorizo and briny, green olives. Usually served with fluffy white rice, this easy chicken stew (or pollo guisado Guatemalteco as it's known in Guatemala) goes great with thick slices of crusty bread to mop up the sauce.
