Chicken Inasal Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Marinate the Chicken

   In a bowl, combine garlic (minced), ginger (sliced), lemon grass (smashed), vinegar, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and marinate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

2. 2

   Prepare the Annatto Oil

   In a small pan, heat the annatto oil over low heat until it turns a vibrant orange. Set aside.

3. 3

   Grill the Chicken

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side, basting with annatto oil until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

4. 4

   Make the Anato Rice

   Cook rice as per package instructions. In a separate pan, add a little annatto oil and sauté the cooked rice for a couple of minutes for color and flavor.

5. 5

   Prepare Salted Egg Ensalata

   Chop salted eggs and mix them with diced tomatoes and onions. Add a splash of vinegar and season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Serve

   Plate the grilled chicken with annatto rice on the side and topped with the salted egg ensalata.
