this was delicious

Inspired by pineapple upside down cake

Did my shopping two days ago. Got a pineapple. Cut it today. It was sweet. Also bought a medium chicken. Cut into halves to be used for soup later. That was the plan. But as a wise man said: only fools never change their mind.

My take on Chinese dish

One of My favorite fruits

Pininyahang manok or pineapple chicken is a filipino dish best accompaniment with steamed rice.HAPPY EATING!☺

I was partway through cooking this dish when my wife came up and said, 'oh, you're making chicken hamonado.' I was actually whipping something up off the top of my head so, of course, I had to look it up right away. Turns out chicken hamonado is a Filipino recipe for chicken in pineapple sauce. It was a little weird to get this revelation from my wife, who's the non-Filipino in the family. She explained that she knew the dish because the Filipino ladies from her church used to bring it to potlucks. My version deviates quite a bit from the theirs. In fact, it probably owes more to a certain British chef -- I Jamie Oliver'd the dish by adding chili and mint. Delicious.

So easy to make and a yummy sweetness to it :-) Ohh and I put a little Sazon that's why the beautiful color ;-)

So good
