Ginataang Manok with Spinach, Chicken in Coconut Milk with Spinach
Ginataang Manok with Spinach, Chicken in Coconut Milk with Spinach is another coconut spinach dish I would like to share. A couple of weeks ago I made a laing style dish using spinach with pork called Pork and Spinach in Coconut Milk, Pinoy Laing Style, today I used chicken but with less quantity of spinach. Cooking is similar to other ginataang dish the chicken is first sutteed with garlic, ginger and onion then stewed with coconut milk.

Ginataang Manok with Spinach


I used baby spinach but any variety of spinach is fine. Actually the best vegetable for this dish is malungay or horse radish leaves, I just substituted it with spinach. The dish has to be stewed till only a thick creamy coconut sauce remain. I used a Lot of chili since I like it really hot but again you may reduce the amount.
