Chicken Giniling with Green Peas

Chicken Giniling with Green Peas is a Filipino stew that makes use of ground chicken meat. This dish is usually made using ground pork (the dish using pork is called pork giniling), but it is a good idea to use other meat to see which is better. In this case, both chicken and pork ranked equal based on my personal judgement.

There are many reasons to use ground chicken instead of ground pork. Chicken (without the skin) is lower in fat and cholesterol. Chicken has also higher protein content.

Chicken Giniling is best served with warm white rice. It can be enjoyed either for lunch or dinner. Sometimes, I like to have it as a filling for hot pandesal.
