That looks super duper delicious and comforting!
Altho’ European-born I have cooked Asian foods from one country to another all my life and with great delight. Somehow have largely missed out on the knowledge of Filipino cooking . . . well, you have been a great help during the past few months – thank you! As I must admit to ‘health’ being rather important in my food choices these days I cannot wait to try this recipe . . . and I can see enough there to freeze for the oncoming days . . .

This will be close to many European dishes specifically Spanish as its basically a Filipino version of the Spanish dishes stewed in tomatoes
Have just reposed to a number of food blogger friends and other ‘friendly bodies’ ! Have to try find your email address and send you a copy . . . !
Sounds delicious, Raymund! And quite interesting. Other than the soy sauce marinade, it seems a quite Western influenced recipe. I wonder if it derives from a Spanish dish?
Yup it is heavily influenced by the Spanish cuisine
A very interesting dish! Especially the liver!
The lover pâté is such a surprising ingredient – this looks great, Raymund!
It gives that creamy livery texture to the gravy
Such a hearty and comforting dish! The marination in vinegar, soy sauce and all the flavorings must give the chicken so much depth of flavour. Yum, I could enjoy a bowl of this with some hot steamed rice. Thanks for sharing!

This looks like a fantastic comfort food, Raymund! That chicken sounds like it would be delicious thanks to the seasonings. Thanks for sharing – I wasn’t familiar with this type of dish, but I’m glad to learn about it now!
