With the permission of the most purist chefs, today I suggest reinterpreting one of the classics of French cuisine, the Coq au Vin, by preparing a chicken in cider wine that truly rivals the traditional recipe. Without hesitation, chicken cooked in a cocotte is always delicious, but in this dish, replacing red wine with dry cider is a brilliant idea, as its apple notes pair wonderfully with the chicken.

Some Sundays call for a long table, the aroma of a good sofrito, and that slow bubbling that signals something delicious is cooking. This creamy rice with octopus and artichokes is exactly that: a flavourful dish with Mediterranean character, perfect for sharing at a leisurely pace.

If there’s one stew that can fill the kitchen with aromas and win over everyone at the table, it’s spiced chicken tagine with pumpkin and chickpeas. Slowly cooked in the tagine, with its distinctive conical lid that circulates the steam, the chicken becomes juicy and tender, infused with spices; the pumpkin turns soft and sweet; the chickpeas add substance; and the dried fruit adds a contrasting touch that makes it irresistible.

Looking for a dish that brings out the best of Spanish cuisine in just a few steps? This rib-eye steak with Padrón peppers is exactly what you need: juicy meat, intense flavour, and that little green surprise from the peppers. In this recipe, I’ll show you how to achieve a perfectly seared steak, full of rosemary and garlic aroma, paired with a vibrant sauté of Padrón peppers.

If you enjoy stuffed pork loins, I’m sure you’ll love these goat cheese and kale stuffed pork chops. The combination of kale and goat cheese is truly delightful, especially when cooked and served hot. Add to that the sauce with cherry tomatoes and shallots, and not only does it keep the pork juicy, but it also enhances its flavour. They’re also quick and easy to make, making them a fantastic option for a weeknight dinner.

This recipe for grilled turbot with fennel and lemon is the perfect example of “less is more”. Both in terms of the number of ingredients and the simplicity of the preparation. It’s the perfect excuse to take advantage of your ceramic frying pan and to enjoy an extraordinary white fish. A dish with Mediterranean aroma and flavour, where the turbot takes centre stage.

When I discovered this recipe, I knew everyone at home would be excited. From selecting the ingredients to the very last bite, we’ve all enjoyed it like little kids. I think it’s a fantastic option to prepare and savour with the family, whether cooked in the home kitchen or on the campsite barbecue. I promise you, this spiral butifarra on the grill is amazing. You really have to try it!

Today I invite you to prepare a recipe I love: a stew of chicken with corn and creamy sauce. I find it a truly delicious way to cook chicken breasts. They turn out fantastic and have an incredibly appetising flavour. Corn is a luxurious companion to the chicken and, along with the chilli slices and lime juice, it adds a touch of Mexican flavour—ideal for rounding off the dish.
