Tamarind chicken stew (Sinampalukang manok) from I Am a Filipino: And This Is How We Cook (page 100) by Nicole Ponseca and Miguel Trinidad

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Very homey and delicious and really easy to make—short ingredient list and simple preparation. This tasted just like I remember it from the Philippines! I omitted the lemongrass and chiles because my mom never cooked with those ingredients.

    So delicious. I substituted canned tomatoes, omitted the chiles, and used a premade tamarind liquor rather than making my own. Super deep sour/savory flavor that I loved with white rice. Will definitely be repeating this.
