• Chicken. This recipe calls for one pound of chicken, which should be enough to serve you and your family. But did you know that the original kinamatis or sarciado dish is actually made with fish? Sarciadong isda is the perfect go-to recipe when you don’t know what to do with your fried fish leftovers. This version of kinematics comes with delicious scrambled eggs that complement your abundance of tomatoes extremely well. Apart from fish or chicken, tofu is also a great, healthy alternative to the protein that you use!
  • Tomatoes. These summery treats come in an array of forms, and you can use them in an array of ways, too! Tomatoes are the jack of all trades when it comes to cooking, and this kinamatisang manok would be nowhere near as delicious without it.
  • Knorr Chicken Cube. The addition of your Knorr Chicken Cube gives your kinamatisang manok even more depth in flavor, and brings out the heartiness of your stew.
  • Bok choy. Leafy and mild in flavor, bokchoy makes the perfect partner to your kinamatisang manok. This vegetable adds a bit of nuttiness that makes your dish all the more dynamic in its flavors!
  • Green chili peppers. And who doesn’t love a bit of spice? These long green chili peppers are definitely something you can look forward to in this dish. I personally like having three pieces of chili peppers in my kinamatisang manok. However, you’re free to add more or remove some to your preference! But that hint of spice is a welcome twist to what may seem to be a one-note tasting recipe.

What does kinamatisang manok taste like?

With all of the ingredients we mentioned above, it’s hard not to imagine this tasting anything but good! Kinamatisang manok takes the best part of all of your ingredients and creates a stew equal parts sweet, savory, sour, and even spicy! It’s the kind of dish you’d want to enjoy with heaping cups of rice, or even some fresh, sautéed veggies. It’s flavorful and impactful in the best way, and you and your family will love it for sure.

Kinamatisang Manok

Let’s work on this kinamatisang manok together!

After heating 3 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pot, sauté your chopped garlic until it starts to brown. Add your onion and ginger next, cooking and softening the former, before putting your chicken in the pot.

It’s ideal that you’ve bought or cut your chicken into serving pieces to make it easier to cook your kinamatisang manok. Cook each side of your chicken pieces for a minute, before stirring in half of your tomatoes.

For this recipe, we’re using 4 tomatoes to really bring out that bright and refreshing flavor we know and love! Cook this mix for about 2 minutes, then add 2 cups of water and bring it to a boil.

Add 1 Knorr Chicken Cube, then 2 tablespoons of fish sauce. Then, cover the pot, bringing the heat down low and letting your chicken boil for 20 minutes. When the 20 minutes are up, add your remaining tomatoes, your long green peppers, and bokchoy. After covering and cooking for a final 3 minutes, season your kinamatisang manok with ground black pepper and patis as needed.

Take your kinamatisang manok off the stove and serve it with rice. With how appetizing its smell is, you’ll be scarfing it down in no time!
