Lechon Manok sa Kawali (Roasted Chicken in a Pot)

May 24, 2018 by Manny Leave a Comment

This is a recipe of a simple lechon manok without roasting it in the oven or charcoal because you are only using an ordinary wok or cooking pot. The chicken is also stuffed with onion, garlic and lemon grass to make it savory. I think this is also called roasted chicken in a pot in some recipes. The heated empty pot or wok will serve as an oven for roasting the chicken but you have to line it with banana leaves to avoid burning the skin of the chicken that touches the pot. The banana leaves will also add a distinctive flavor to the roasted chicken compared to using aluminum foil, but just in case banana leaves are not available, I think aluminum foil will suffice.
