Recipe 1: Tiniim na Manok

PREP TIME: 10 mins COOK TIME: 1 hour TOTAL TIME: 1 hour 10 mins

Yield: 4 to 6 Servings

INGREDIENTS:

1 (4 to 5 pounds) whole chicken
3 cups pineapple juice
½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup brown sugar
½ cup pineapple tidbits
2 shallots, peeled and minced
4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1 thumb-size ginger, peeled and sliced thinly
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper corns
¼ cup cornstarch dissolved in ¼ cup water

INSTRUCTIONS:

Rinse chicken and drain well.
In a pot (large enough to accommodate chicken) with tight fitting lid, combine pineapple juice, soy sauce and brown sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring regularly, until sugar is dissolved.
Add pineapple tidbits, shallots, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper corns. Add chicken. Lower heat, cover and simmer for about 40 to 50 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (insert a thermometer on thickest part of chicken to read 165 F).
Gently remove chicken from pot, place on serving platter and keep warm. You can chop chicken into serving pieces, if you like.
In a colander, strain marinade mixture and discard aromatics. Return liquid back to pot and bring to a boil. Gently add cornstarch slurry and continue to cook, whisking regularly, for about 3 to 5 minutes or until thickened. Pour half of the sauce over chicken and place remaining half in a bowl to serve as dipping sauce. Garnish platter with additional pineapple tidbits. Serve hot.
