There's no question PR Food is my favorite. My Grandmother Petra used to make me Arroz Gandules, Puerto Rican style chicken and rice and beans that were so amazing. The first place I go when I visit South Florida is to Abuela's house. So in her honor I found these 10 great Puerto Rican Style chicken recipes from our Amigos over at Yummly. These guys have a lot of great Puerto Rican recipes. Here at the Hispanic Food Network we love friends, fun but most of all food. Enjoy!
