CHICKEN AFRITADA RECIPES

Chicken Afritada is every other popular Filipino dish. portions of fowl are cooked in tomato sauce along with carrots, potatoes and bell peppers. some prefer to add inexperienced peas and hot dogs as properly, but I select my chook afritada without it. any other variant will use each red meat and chook or will use just pork. i love my afritada easy and easy, with simply the fundamental greens.
