Chicken Menudo

Chicken Menudo Recipe


Chicken Menudo, menudo is one of Pinoy’s popular meat dishes. See my previous post on menudo. Most of us probably love pork menudo, in fact it is most likely that menudo is on the menu on most handaan. How ever there are places where pork is not available or some people don’t take pork because of health reasons, the pork menudo is out of the menu.

Chicken Menudo Dish

On this post I would like to share a healthier option if you love menudo but pork is a no! no! for you… Instead of pork you could always substitute it with chicken and use canned liver spread instead of the pork liver, all the other ingredients are more likely the same.
