POLLO MARIA (ZIA'S ON THE HILL, ST. LOUIS, MO)
Decadent stuff here my friends! They make this with cod which is equally as good, if not better, than it is with the chicken. This is Zia's actual recipe as posted on their website. Takes a little time to prepare, but is worth every minute. The original recipe calls for 1/3 cup plus 1/4 cup of Provel cheese (which is not recognized by Zaar). . .per Wikipedia, Provel is a white processed cheese that is popular in St. Louis, Missouri and is produced with cheddar, Swiss, and provolone. Since Provel was not an option here on Zaar, I just substituted provolone; feel free to use a mix of Swiss and provolone for a more true rendition.
