I believe the answer is:

chorizo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'sausage' is the definition.
(type of sausage)

'taste of chicken mostly as far as i can see' is the wordplay.
'taste of chicken' becomes 'c' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'mostly' means to remove the last letter (most but not all of the word).
'as far as i can see' becomes 'horizon' (you can't see beyond the horizon).
'horizon' with its final letter taken away is 'horizo'.
'c'+'horizo'='CHORIZO'

'has' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chorizo that I've seen before include "food from the deli" , "Hot sausage" , "Spicy Spanish meat product" , "Highly-seasoned sausage" , "Spicy Spanish pork sausage" .)
