Pollo al Ajillo is a traditional Spanish dish made with chicken pieces, olive oil, and lots of garlic, often flavored with white wine and bay leaves. It originates from central Spain, especially Castile-La Mancha, and has roots in rural home cooking where simple pantry staples were transformed into rich, flavorful meals. The chicken is usually pan-fried until golden and infused with the fragrant garlic oil.

This dish is found throughout Spain and has slight variations depending on the region, but the rich garlic flavor is the defining characteristic. It’s served hot as a main dish for lunch or dinner, often with rustic bread to soak up the garlicky sauce.
