Chicken inasal
Chicken Inasal is a popular Filipino dish from the Visayas region, particularly in the city of Bacolod. It is a type of barbecue or grilled chicken that is marinated in a mixture of calamansi, pepper, coconut vinegar, and annatto before being grilled over hot coals.
History
The origins of Chicken Inasal can be traced back to the Spanish colonial period in the Philippines. The dish is believed to have been influenced by Spanish cooking methods, particularly the use of annatto for coloring and flavoring. However, the unique combination of ingredients and the grilling technique make it distinctly Filipino.
Preparation
The preparation of Chicken Inasal involves several steps. The chicken pieces are first marinated in a mixture of calamansi, pepper, coconut vinegar, and annatto. The marinated chicken is then skewered on bamboo sticks and grilled over hot coals. The chicken is periodically basted with the marinade to keep it moist and flavorful. The dish is typically served with a side of garlic rice and a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, vinegar, and chili.
Variations
There are several variations of Chicken Inasal, each with its own unique flavor profile. Some versions use different types of vinegar or substitute calamansi with other citrus fruits. Others add additional spices or herbs to the marinade. Despite these variations, the basic preparation method remains the same.
Cultural Significance
Chicken Inasal is not just a popular dish in the Philippines, but it is also a significant part of Filipino culture. It is commonly served at fiestas and other special occasions. In Bacolod, the annual Bacolod Chicken Inasal Festival is held to celebrate this iconic dish.
