This Spanish / Latin-American favorite doesn’t miss out on the love most Hondurans give the dish. Regardless of its roots, today it’s become an everyday dish in many households in the country. Whether it be prepared as a way to make one chicken feed a large crowd, or just as part of the weekly menu, this classic is always a welcomed treat. Saffron, used in most recipes for the yellow color) was introduced by Phoenician traders way back when, and although the added favorites in America include tomatoes & peppers, we Hondurans usually prepare the dish with the simple addition of peas & carrots. Sometimes, olives & raisins are added for a special touch! Like many other family dishes, each home has its own delicious way of preparing it.
