This is a chicken dish that takes a few ingredients and puts them together in a way you wouldn’t expect.
The sauce is something to write home about.
Seriously!
Pollo alla Senape is simply Chicken with Mustard. It’s pronounced Po-low all-a Sin-ah-pay but that’s really deceiving.
It should be called Chicken with a creamy heavenly mustard sauce with traces of beer.
But, well, that just doesn’t roll off the tongue like Pollo alla Senape does, now does it?
