GCC: Menu 18 - Chicken Croquettes

The Gutsy Cook menu this week included a favorite of mine: Chicken croquettes or as they are called in Spain “Croquetas de pollo”.  Because, while most of Latin American has their own version of this dish.  The Spaniards version is the core of all the what-to-be croquetas.

These little dreamy morsels are eaten all over the country.  They are served in chic wine bar, in Tabernas, expensive restaurants, in cheap dives and they are all mouth-watering good.

I mean, how – unless you’re a poultry-hater — can you not fall for something that’s crisp outside, creamily inside and you can eat with your fingers?

I totally love them.
