Ginataang Manok (Chicken Cooked in Coconut Milk) image

This is a Filipino chicken dish flavored with ginger and coconut milk. Each family has their own version. This is my mother's version. It's a rich dish that makes your kitchen smell so wonderful! Once my family smells the ginger frying and coconut milk simmering, they can't wait for it to be done so they can dig in! I salt it liberally as the coconut milk tends to hide the salt flavor.

3 tablespoons canola oil
½ cup sliced fresh ginger
1 (5 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces

  • If you don't have coconut milk, you can use a mixture of milk and cream.
  • Be sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help the flavors to penetrate the meat.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the chicken, you can skip this step. However, the chicken will not be as flavorful.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent the coconut milk from curdling.
  • Serve the chicken with rice, vegetables, or your favorite side dish.
