Chicken inasal

Common card · No. 446140

Chicken inasal, commonly known simply as inasal, is a Visayan variant of the Filipino chicken dish lechon manok. It is made from chicken, typically served by the breast and wing (Pecho) or leg and/or thigh (Paa/Hita) parts, that is marinated in a mixture of calamansi, black pepper, coconut vinegar and annatto before being grilled over hot coals while basted with the marinade. It is served with rice, calamansi, soy sauce, chicken oil and vinegar (often sinamak vinegar, a palm vinegar infused with garlic, chili peppers and langkawas). There are two popular versions of chicken inasal: the Bacolod and the Iloilo. The usual difference between them is that Bacolod's inasal has a slightly sour base flavor, while Iloilo's has a sweeter flavor.
