FTF: Pininyahang Manok (Pineapple Chicken) PLUS Peeling Whole Fresh Pineapple =)
and when he came back he said, “Mom, I bought pineapple. Do you know how to peel it?” and so I said, “Hhhmm… Watch and learn!”
In our almost 5 years of marriage, I believe it’s the first time we bought fresh pineapple and he hasn’t seen me peel one, yet. Recalling the other years of my life prior to my married life, I don’t think I’ve tried peeling one though, so basically what I used was – stock knowledge???
haha!!! I often watch my Lola and Titas do it, so I know I can impress my hubster this time. 
And I took all the so called “eyes” diagonally…
Tadah!!! 
I cut it into rings (just like the ones in can) and don’t get confused about the crown, I just put it over the sliced pineapples for decoration… LOL
Others put carrots, bell pepper, tomatoes and coconut milk. I just realized, my version is the simplest! LOL… Mine only consists of potatoes and milk, but I’ll still share. We all have different ways of cooking pininyahang manok and this time I believe taste differs too, not just the procedure, but it’s how we learn, right? 
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. chicken breast
1-2 pcs. potatoes
3 slices fresh pineapple
1 chicken Knorr cubes (made in Asia pls… )
1 tsp. fish sauce
ground pepper
1 cup fresh milk
METHOD:
1. In a skillet, saute onion, garlic and chicken. Season with pepper, Knorr cubes, fish sauce and pineapple. Cook for about 2-3 minutes (when other parts of chicken is used, more cooking time is required).
2. Add in the potatoes and simmer until potatoes are tender.
3. Pour in the milk and cook for 1 more minute. Don’t cover this time. Done!
Haha!!! As easy as pie! LOL… Hubby loves it and Alyssa too. This is the only pininyahang manok I know and tasted my whole life, so I think I will have to try the other versions for a change.

I never tried peeling a fresh pineapple before and I don't think I want to try one in the future. it's too much for me, lol!

Happy Friday!!!

I love to cook Pininyahang Manok, pero madali akong mag sawa. Isang kain lang siguro, oks na sa akin, unlike Afritada na kahit 3 days kong kainin. Regarding peeling pinya, ay naku, kapag nasa mood ako, oks si pinya, kapag wala, durog ang pinya, hehehe!Pero di kasi ako palakain ng fresh pinya, nag ba burn ang dila ko at 2-3 days akong nagdudusa.

[Reply]

Hi AC your pininyahang manok looks yummy.

Pininyahang manok is one of my favorites and I could eat it for days basta may kanin! Sometimes my mother also uses Carnation evaporated milk in place of coconut milk.

your hubby is lucky to have such a wonderful cook hihi.
Thank you for the tips. I still have to do such myself. when i buy pineapple, i also ask the grocer to peel and slice for me.
But the steps you shared sound like i can do it as well lolz!
