Baked Chicken with Serrano Chile Cream Sauce
Baked Chicken with Serrano Chile Cream Sauce
Pechugas de Pollo con Salsa de Crema de Chile SerranoIn this recipe that I developed for a cooking class, both the creamy serrano sauce and the method of cooking the chicken in the oven are modern innovations. It's quite an elegant dish and looks very inviting when served with slender carrot and jicama sticks.
