Amazing Pollo Fundido

This is my boyfriend's favorite dish. He is originally from the west coast, and now lives on the east coast. You really can't find this dish in restaurants on the east coast, so I decided to make it for him. I found ONE recipe for it on the internet ,and it wasn't very good. So I called the restaurant he used to get it at, and asked for the recipe. They gave me a few hints but kept the rest confidential. SO between what they told me, and what I found on this site I made up my own version. Hope you like it! Show more
