WHAT IS PININYAHANG MANOK?

Pininyahang Manok, or pineapple chicken, is a popular Filipino meal in which chicken is cooked in a creamy sauce prepared with milk, pineapple juice, and pieces.

Traditional recipes call for coconut milk because of its thick consistency, but you can use table cream or all-purpose cream, which is what this recipe calls for. Carrots, potatoes, bell peppers, garlic, and onions are among the other ingredients.

HOW TO COOK PININYAHANG MANOK?

Who’d have guessed that a pininyahang manok appears to be difficult to prepare may actually be quite simple? With this one-of-a-kind recipe, you’ll prepare something that is both simple to prepare and opulent in taste. Here’s a link to a thorough description of how to prepare it:

  • To begin, make sure you have enough time to prepare the food so that we can enhance the tastes.
  • While you’re chopping away the other ingredients, soak the chicken in the pineapple juice (which is also included in the container with the pineapple pieces). This will give the chicken an extra sweet kick when you eat it later.
  • It will be a simple cooking process after you have all of the ingredients ready. If you’ve cooked other famous Filipino dishes before, this should be simple enough.
  • If you want to incorporate the potatoes and carrots, you’ll need to softly fry them first before sauteing the other ingredients, such as onions and garlic, and cooking the chicken.
  • The next step is to pour in the pineapple juice and bring it to a boil. After that, reduce the heat to low and stir in the pineapple pieces and the cream.
  • Keep an eye on it and stir thoroughly to ensure that everything is evenly distributed. The simmering will take some time because you want to make sure the chicken is tender.
  • After that, add in the bell peppers, as well as the other seasonings and spices for the final touches. And that’s it!
