Chicken bistek is another variation of the well known traditional beef bistek. I think this is the healthier version of bistek compared to beef or pork and it also needs less time to cook. The way to describe this dish is meat marinated in soy sauce, calamansi juice and pepper. Then sauteed and cooked in its own marinade until tender. Then garnished with onions rings which is the common ingredient on all version of bistek dishes. I think without the onions it is hard to identify this dish by just looking at it. So what are you waiting for? try this dish on your next menu and tell me how tasty it is by commenting below.
