Is this some kind of Nordic version of chicken Kiev? Not really. You see, "''Dania"'' (with capital D) is the Polish name for the country of Denmark. But "''dania''" (with lower-case D and a slightly different pronunciation) is the Polish word for dishes or courses. So "''dania z kurczaka''" is not so much a single preparation as it's the title of a whole section of a menu, devoted to dishes made from chicken.

I suppose you still expect a recipe, though, don't you? Okay, so let's pick what is perhaps the most Polish chicken dish you can find, which is the ''kurczę pieczone po polsku'', or liver-stuffed roasted chicken in the Polish style.
