Description:

This easy chicken breast recipe is a simple yet delicious Filipino dish that is perfect for family dinners or gatherings. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, calamansi juice, garlic, and other spices that infuse the meat with a savory and tangy taste. The dish is then pan-fried to perfection, resulting in juicy and moist chicken that pairs well with rice or vegetables.

Prep Time:

15 minutes

Cook Time:

20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup calamansi juice (or lemon juice)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil

Equipment:

  • Large bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Garlic press or mincer
  • Frying pan
  • Tongs or spatula

Method:

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the soy sauce, calamansi juice, garlic, black pepper, and salt.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and coat them well with the marinade.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
  4. Heat the cooking oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Add the marinated chicken breasts to the pan and fry for 8-10 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and golden brown.
  6. Use tongs or a spatula to flip the chicken breasts over and cook the other side.
  7. Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes:

  • For best results, marinate the chicken overnight to allow the flavors to fully develop.
  • If you don't have calamansi juice, you can substitute it with lemon or lime juice.
  • If the chicken breasts are too thick, you can pound them with a meat mallet to make them thinner and easier to cook.
