Filipino Tinola image

I can't believe there's no recipe for Tinola on this site. it's a staple of Filipino cuisine, and it's basically a ginger chicken stewish soup. I've modified my mom's recipe to include only chicken breasts, as the original includes all sorts of chicken parts that I don't eat. As Filipino recipes are meant to be taste-tested at every step and tweaked to one's liking, these should only be general guidelines to help you perfect your own Tinola recipe.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 -3 chicken breasts, cut up into small pieces
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
1 small onion, sliced
2 tablespoons gingerroot, zested
3 tablespoons fish sauce
1 chayote, peeled and cubed (You can also substitute green papaya or winter melon)
olive oil
3/4-1 cup water

Steps:

  • Saute garlic, onion and ginger in oil for 30 seconds over med heat.
  • Add chicken and saute until chicken meat turns white. Add fish sauce.
  • Cover and simmer until chicken is almost completely cooked (7-10 min.). At this point, there will be a fair amount of broth, since all the juices from the chicken are coming out.
  • Add water (I usually add 3/4 cup and that gives me a pretty good, concentrated flavor. my mom adds a little more than a cup, and the flavor is much mellower and sometimes I add more fish sauce at the table. really, you should just experiment).
  • Add chayote and simmer for 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • Serve over rice.
