One of my healthiest stew I ever made. I may say that this Healthy Chicken stew or Healthy Chicken Tinola can help you retain your weight as to compare to other recipes. Imagine, this chicken recipe used Chicken Breast and canola oil instead of using Chicken red meats and vegetable oil? I didn’t took off the skin because the recipe might fail.

Anyway, this recipe is very simple, all ingredients are all easy to find! In my case, I just got some of my ingredients at the backyard like the dahon ng sili and papaya. The ginger, garlic and onions are all typically can be found inside your kitchen.

- 5 cloves of Garlic minced

- 2 tbsp Ginger thinly sliced
- at least 3 pcs of Chicken Breast or any part cut into serving size
- 4 tbsp of Canola Oil
- 1 liter of Water
- 1 Chicken Cube
- 2 tbsp of fish sauce or patis
- salt and pepper to taste

Chicken Tinola Recipe cooking Procedure:
- In a pot, heat the oil in a medium fire and saute the garlic, onions and ginger.
- Add the chicken pieces and add a table spoon of ground black pepper and salt and cook it for 5 mins with occationally stiring.

thanks for sharing your recipe. im planning to use the slow cooker for this dish but not sure if i should saute first or just dump everything in the slow cooker. which do you think will work best? thanks! love love your blog. =)
I always saute the meat, spices and veggies and before putting them up to slow cooker (except the veggies – just set them aside). I just add he veggies on the last 15 or 30 minutes. I just let the slow cooker make the final step. tip: put the hard veggies like potatoes, carrots etc., 30 minutes before it ends. But leafy veggies like cabbage, string beans etc should be added 10-15 mins before it ends.
