Certified Wife Cooked: Tinolang Manok

Since it’s raining this week, my husband requested me to cook him Tinolang Manok.. Masarap nga naman humingop ng mainit na sabaw pag naulan.. So last Saturday, I cooked for Tinolang Manok ala Rackell for the first time, in fairness nagustuhan naman nya.. Haha.

½ kilo chicken, cut into any part of your choice
