Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground chicken
- 8 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons coconut vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, minced garlic, coconut vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed and the sugar has dissolved.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the mixture marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for a deeper flavor.
After marination, take small portions of the mixture and shape them into small sausages, about 4 inches long and 1 inch in diameter.
Heat cooking oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chicken longanisa sausages and cook for about 7 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned on all sides and cooked through.
Once cooked, remove from pan and drain any excess oil on paper towels.
Serve the chicken longanisa hot with steamed rice or eggs for a hearty meal. Enjoy!
