Ginataang Manok with Spinach, Chicken in Coconut Milk with Spinach
Ginataang Manok with Spinach, Chicken in Coconut Milk with Spinach is another coconut spinach dish I would like to share. A couple of weeks ago I made a laing style dish using spinach with pork called Pork and Spinach in Coconut Milk, Pinoy Laing Style, today I used chicken but with less quantity of spinach. Cooking is similar to other ginataang dish the chicken is first sutteed with garlic, ginger and onion then stewed with coconut milk.
I used baby spinach but any variety of spinach is fine. Actually the best vegetable for this dish is malungay or horse radish leaves, I just substituted it with spinach. The dish has to be stewed till only a thick creamy coconut sauce remain. I used a Lot of chili since I like it really hot but again you may reduce the amount.
If you love guinataang dish then I would recommend that this dish is worth a try. Here is the recipe of my Ginataang Manok with Spinach, Chicken in Coconut Milk with Spinach.
Ingredients:
1/2 kilo chicken bone in, cut to serving pieces
1 can (400ml) coconut milk
300 grams baby spinach
3-4 cloves garlic, chopped
2 thumb size ginger, cut into thin strips
1 medium size onion, chopped
2-3 pieces red and green chili, sliced
1/8 tsp. cracked peppercorns
