Why cooks start here

Pollo a la provenzal is chicken finished with a blizzard of garlic and parsley. It is a skillet, loud with garlic, next to fries.

Pollo a la Provenzal is a beloved staple in Argentine kitchens, known for its simplicity and bold flavors. Traditionally enjoyed during casual family dinners, this dish highlights the country's affinity for rustic, straightforward cooking. With roots in the Provençal influence that arrived with immigrants, it has become a fixture on tables where stories are shared over hearty meals. The dish is an aromatic celebration, where the chicken is generously coated with minced garlic and fresh parsley, creating a vibrant, fragrant crust. Every bite bursts with the sharpness of garlic, mellowed by the earthy notes of parsley, making it an irresistible pairing with golden, crispy fries. It's a sensory delight that brings warmth and comfort with every mouthful.
