Recipe of Chicken in homemade almond sauce with sherry brandy.

Vida Recetas Editorial

Chicken in almond sauce is a classic of traditional cooking, and this version with almonds and sherry brandy gives it an elegant and flavorful touch. Originating from Spanish tradition, this recipe combines the smoothness of almonds with the aroma of brandy, creating a thick sauce full of nuances that coats the chicken and potatoes. It is perfect for a family Sunday lunch or to surprise your guests with a homemade dish with a festive air.

The preparation is simple, ideal for beginner-level cooks. The secret lies in mashing the almonds, garlic, and fried bread with parsley well, which will give body to the sauce. When adding the brandy, a deep aroma is created that blends with the rest of the ingredients. New potatoes absorb all the flavor, becoming the perfect side dish.

This recipe admits variations: you can use whole cut-up chicken or just thighs, and if you don't have sherry brandy, a regular brandy or even dry white wine works well. You can thicken the sauce with a little breadcrumbs if you prefer it denser.
