This chicken dish is so easy to cook and to prepare. Also, I think this is the chicken version of pork humba which is one of the popular Filipino dish. It is because humba dish is usually cooked using pork and not chicken or beef. The other thing I notice is the addition of coconut milk in this dish which is not usually added in humba. Anyway I think you will find this dish appetizing and might become one of your favorite dish when you try it.
