'''Gallo en chicha''' is a traditional Salvadoran dish (although it is cooked and eaten at a regional level in Central America) made with rooster, salvadorean chicha and panela. A simple comparation would be to say it is a localized version of [[Coq-au-vin]], but that would be just half of the history. The gallo en chicha, like much of the [[Salvadoran cuisine]], is an exotic blend of the European influences and the salvadoran ingredients and cooking traditions, resulting in a delicious creolle dish.


While it is consumed in most parts of [[El Salvador]], it is most common in the western and central parts of the country. The dish is consumed in both rural and urban areas.
==Traditions==


The dish is consumed in most parts of the country, but has a bigger and more noticeable presence in the western and central parts of El Salvador. The dish is consumed in both rural and urban areas, and it is usually prepared in special occasions and celebrations, like holidays or to celebrate the birth of a baby, for example. This may have to do with the relatively long and complicated cooking process, making it a dish that isn't eaten everyday, much like turkey.
Because cooking this dish is complicated and time-consuming, it is usually prepared for special occasions and celebrations, such as holidays or the birth of a child.

Gallo en chicha is a traditional chicken dish in Salvadoran cuisine,[1] also eaten elsewhere in Central America, such as in Guatemala.[2] The dish is made with rooster, Salvadoran chicha[3] and panela. It is somewhat similar to coq au vin,[4] but like much of Salvadoran cuisine is a blend of European influences and the Salvadoran ingredients and cooking traditions.[3]

While it is consumed in most parts of El Salvador, it is most common in the western and central parts of the country. The dish is consumed in both rural and urban areas.

Because cooking this dish is complicated and time-consuming, it is usually prepared for special occasions and celebrations, such as holidays or the birth of a child.
