Sonoran Cookbook - labradors - 05-03-2014
While cooking the Gallina Pinta tonight, I browsed through more of the cookbook whose recipe I used.
Wow! There are a LOT of delicious-sounding recipes in there.
I didn't even have to browse very far to encounter "Almond Chicken" - fried chicken with crushed almonds, cinnamon and cloves and a sauce made from tomatoes and orange juice.
There was also "Chicken Stuffed with Chorizo." As good as that sounds, there's more to it: the stuffing is a mixture of fried chorizo with tomatoes, onions, green chiles, potatoes and carrots!
Those sound wonderful, and they are only two of the recipes from the 300-page book!
Definitely need to keep trying new things from this one.

The title is Cocina Sonorense. Sonorense means "Sonoran" - that is, "from or of Sonora" and cocina can be translated as "cooking," "cuisine," or "kitchen."
Thus, the English title would be "Sonoran Cooking," "Sonoran Cuisine" or "Sonoran Kitchen."
Since it's actually published by the government of the State of Sonora and is in Spanish, I doubt that it's the same one you have.
The link in my first post is directly to the PDF file of the entire cookbook.
My offer to translate selected recipes (within reason - a few here, a few there, not too many at once) still stands.
