Tinutong na Manok Sa Gata
October 19th, 2013
Tinotong na manok sa gata or tinutungang manok is a Bicolano chicken dish. Chicken is cooked in coconut milk with vegetables like unripe papaya (although papaya is a fruit, since it is unripe and used in cooking so I might consider it as vegetable for now), carrots, bell pepper and spices. The original Bicolano version use native chicken because in the countryside folks usually have free roaming native chicken but you can use the white chicken (leghorn) sold usually in the wet market and supermarket. Also in the original version, the coconut meat is toasted first before extracting the coconut milk and that is why it is called “tinutong” or toasted. I also see some recipes includes chicken blood but not sure if that is in the original version or just a variation.
