Lusog Notes:
This dish is high in vitamin A that helps maintain healthy skin and normal vision. It also has niacin that helps keep the digestive and nervous systems healthy.
Chef's Tip:
Season the chicken with salt and pepper just before cooking to keep the chicken moist. Salt draws out the moisture from meats and adding the salt long before cooking will draw out the juices.
