Chicken, tomatoes and pineapple stew

A dish similar to this one was my friend Melissa’s contribution to our last every-Saturday-dinner with our close-knit circle of whacky friends (I brought my potato, beef and peanut pot). I asked her for the recipe and she recited the ingredients and procedure between mouthfuls of guinataang kuhol and inihaw ng liempo. In her recipe, kalamansi (native lemon) juice was among the ingredients.

I decided early this morning that I would cook my version of Melissa’s recipe. I had already marinated the chicken pieces when I discovered that we didn’t have kalamansi in the house. A trip to the nearby sari-sari stores proved futile. The roadside vegetable stalls were all closed. Sunday, after all. So, what was I going to do with marinated chicken…?? I did some fast thinking and went back to the nearest sari-sari store. A can of pineapple chunks would do. I would just add a little rice wine. The tanginess and aroma of the pineapple plus the mild sourness of rice vinegar would do the trick. The cooked dish was just wonderful! So easy to prepare too.

    Hi Victoria.

    I am so happy for you. Cooking is fun, isn’t it? Sucks when the pros try hard to mystify it.

    “Liquid seasoning” is Knorr or Magi seasoning. I use them interchangeably with steak sauce or Worsectershire sauce.

    Re: steak recipe. LOL Why didn’t I ever think of that? All those times we grilled steaks, I never took photos. I’ll remember that in the future. :)

    hey connie. its me again. hehe, i seriously need to stock up my pantry with basic ingredients…but anyway, i don’t have rice vinegar, i just have the regular vinegar..i wondered if you’d think it’ll be a great idea to mix the regular vinegar with real lemon? haha, puro na lang ako lemon….lemon addict kase eh.
    i also bought this pineapple, and i have no clue what to do with it. whaa. i digress though.

  5. Connie on April 12th, 2006 1:51 pm

    re regular vinegar ang lemon. naku, i did that once, grace. SOBRA tapang. :sad:

    re pineapple. o, you’re looking at a page with pineapple in the recipe! try mo na. :)

    Hi there miss. I was wondering what you mean by liquid seasoning. I am making this today for my wife and I and I probably wont be putting that in since I am not too sure on that one.

    Anyways, thanks for an awesome site! I’ve been cooking food that I missed from my mom and Philippines from the recipes I picked up here. Its tough to get some ingredients tho since I have to travel 70miles to get to the nearest Asian store.

  7. Connie on June 13th, 2006 10:47 am

    Know liquid seasoning, Maggi liquid seasoning, or even Worcestershire sauce or A1 Steak sauce.

  8. jt on February 20th, 2007 9:35 am

    Maggi seasoning sauce is very popular in asian cuisine which is ironic since it was invented by a Swiss. Maggi has been owned by Nestle. I don’t think the Knorr counterpart even comes close to the quality. Knorr tastes more like liquid MSG. The only questionable ingredient in Maggi seasoning is the “artificial flavoring”. What the heck do they mean by that? Is it suppose to resemble the taste of soy sauce or worcestershire sauce?

    i tried this recipe just right now and simmering happily in the saucepan…
    it came out perfectly, usually i’d go wrong on a little detail but the instructions are so simply put that it’s that easy to get things going.
    i love cooking, it’s real nice to get recipes from home!
    thanks again, tita (can i call you “tita”? it seems so disrespectful without the title kasi e…)!!!!

    Hi Connie,

    I appreciate all your time and effort spent on sharing your recipes online.
    I am Ritchie, a husband-employee-cooking-and-father. My wife also cooks but I would prefer to cook as well for my family and friends.
    I always follow your recipes (easy to follow and doable) - I like especially this and the Pininyahang Manok.
    More power to you and your family.
    God bless,

  14. Jorge Andrada on November 5th, 2007 10:25 am

    I would have to disagree on the better quality of Maggi over Knorr liquid seasoning. I would choose Knorr over Maggi anytime, and I always have extra bottles of Knorr. Try both to test your preference.

  15. Connie on November 5th, 2007 6:01 pm

    leng, your hubby chanting while you’re cooking is cute. LOL

  16. faye on May 13th, 2008 7:42 pm
