Рецепт Chicken Bicol Express

by Manny Montala

Chicken Bicol Express This Bicol express is the healthier version on the creamy and spicy dish. It is loaded with green chili peppers and red chili peppers so you can imagine the spicy taste of this dish. If green shili peppers are not readily available, you can use bell peppers. Just add more red chili peppers to make it hot. Usually pork is used, but on this version lean chicken meat is used which is low in cholesterol provided that you won’t include the skin. But if you are not a health buff and you just want a lighter version of the Bicol express, then you can include the skin. This chicken Bicol express is a good alternative to the pork version because pork fat is high in cholesterol. And about the shrimp paste, you can use sauteed shrimp paste which is more convenient but most of the time they are a little sweet. But you can also use fresh shrimp paste if you don’t want the sweet taste of the sauteed shrimp paste.   How to Cook Chicken Bicol Express   Print Prep time Cook time Total time   Author: Manny Recipe type: Chicken Recipe Cuisine: Filipino Serves: 4 servings Ingredients 500grams chicken fillet, cut into cubes 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 onion, minced 4 pcs green chili peppers(siling panigang), sliced diagonally 2 cups coconut milk 2 Tbsp. bagoong alamang (shrimp paste) 3 pcs laurel leaves 2 pcs siling labuyo, choppes 2 Tbsp. cooking oil 1 tsp. ground pepper 1 to 2 Tbsp. patis or fish sauce Instructions How to cook Chicken Bicol Express: In a cooking pan, heat cooking oil and saute garlic, onion and laurel leaves until the onions are soft.
