Requena-Utiel (Spanish: [reˈkena uˈtjel]; Valencian: Plana d'Utiel [ˈplana ðutiˈɛl]) is a comarca currently in the province of Valencia, Valencian Community, Spain. The area was transferred to this province in 1851, as a result of a reform of the 1833 territorial division of Spain; before that it was a part of the Crown of Castile and of the former province of Cuenca. The inhabitants of the comarca have traditionally been monolingual in Spanish, i.e. they are not Valencian speakers.

Chera, now officially included in Requena-Utiel according to the current administrative division pattern of the Valencian Community, was geographically and historically part of Los Serranos comarca.^[1]
