CHICKEN DONE WITH SIDRA

• Ingredients for 4 persons: 4 chicken legs or any other part you prefer, 100 grs. of cured ham, 1 onion, 2 apples (the fuji is a good choice), ½ liter of Sidra (it’s a typical north Spanish drink, made out of apples). If you don’t find it I think Irish people have something similar. You will also need salt, black pepper, olive oil and 2 or 3 potatoes.

• Have the cured ham ready and cut in dices.
