Traditional Dalmatian meal -- the recipe has passed down generations via my mother's side of the family. This is how my none (nonna) made it. Rumour has it that it was originally made with pigeons - hence prošek (a really sweet and aromatic wine -- NOT the Italian prosecco). I wouldn't make it with a pigeon though, even if I had a lot of prošek that I am cooking with (instead of drinking).
Requires chicken leg, cloves, fortified wine, garlic, nutmeg, onions, pepper, salt, and tomato paste.
Takes 45 mins.
