"𝐖𝐎𝐊" 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐚𝐲 (𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐠 𝐧𝐨. 15)

Chicken tinola is an authentic Filipino dish. A soup that is based on ginger and onion with chicken as the main ingredient, and with the addition of green papaya or (𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙮𝙤𝙩𝙚 𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙣 𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚), Chili pepper leaves or Malunggay (𝙈𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙖).Here Malunggay and Chili pepper leaves are quite expensive, it will cost around 2-3 dollars for a small bundle, so I decided to put Kangkong (𝙒𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙎𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙘𝙝) and Pechay as an alternative.

This traditional dish is usually cooked in low heat for quite some time to bring out the natural flavor of the chicken. And its soo good to served during cold and rainy seasons.

Like I said the main secret in making this dish is by simmering the chicken for a period of time.
As this is cooked with leaves and vegetable, Tinola is having lots of health benefits.

Prepare it while boiling your chicken, to save more time. In this dish I boiled my Chicken for about 20mins and keep the broth for later use.

Chicken is one of the most protein consumed food and also chicken is one of the best natural way to lessen the cholesterol.

• Sauté the garlic, onion, and ginger, put ground black pepper so that it will incorporate with the oil to bring more flavor to our dish.
