PARE: Power idle, Ailerons neutral, Rudder opposite, Elevator forward. Rudder: Full opposite input to the spin direction. The problem is that the airflow from the propeller goes over the horizontal stabilizer, which produces a downward force (and causes the nose to pitch up). Ready to become a safer pilot?
