Chicken Binagoongan (Chicken Cooked in Shrimp Paste)





I’m kind of tired of the food that we usually eat at the Dining Facility and thought of cooking Tinola. Instead, I cooked this dish that is usually cooked with Pork and is called Pork Binagoongan. This time is Chicken Binagoongan.

Here’s the recipe and how to cook this Chicken Binagoongan.

Ingredients:

1 whole chicken (cut in single portion)

1 cup of bagoong alamang (Shrimp Paste)

1 head of garlic (minced)

2 big onions (sliced)

4 tomatoes (diced)

Fish Sauce

Cooking oil

4 chili peppers (minced) or according to taste

¼ cup vinegar

4 tablespoons brown sugar

Cooking procedure: 1. In a casserole, put cooking oil and sauté garlic, onions, tomatoes and chillis. Add fish sauce and chicken.

2. When chicken is tender, add bagoong/shrimp paste and cook for 5 minutes.

3. Pour in the vinegar and stir well, add the sugar and let it simmer for few minutes until it's cooked.
