Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ Connie

The first time I cooked Chicken Menudo, I made a little girl very pleased indeed. Her name is Nicole and she is my husband’s niece. She was about 4 or 5 years old at the time. My own daughters were too young to eat table food then.

I have cooked Chicken Menudo dozens of times since. See, my kids, now 11 and 9, really love this dish. Funny that when I first tried it, I had no idea that chicken menudo would be better appreciated by kids than the classic pork version.

I used to cook Chicken Menudo using deboned chicken thighs–the kind one finds in pre-packed styrofoam trays in the supermarket. This time, I used the meat of stewing chicken. And, believe me, Chicken Menudo had never tasted so good.

    Hi Connie,

    I’ve been seeing your website early this year (I think, can’t remember the exact date eh). And just a week ago, I tried this chicken menudo since there’s no pork here in KSA.
    And I’m surprise, it’s reslly taste like menudo (co’z i’m used to pork menudo way back in Phils). And my 5 yrs. old daughter likes it too. Don’t know with my husband, he didn’t comment but I notice that he doubled his serving of rice hahaha.

    I also try your other recipes it superb!!! Thanks to your site. Keep up the good work. And Keep on posting new recipes. It really helps.

    Hi Connie,

    Life here in Sydney is always busy. That’s why I always use the bottled garlic and bottled ginger. Is this bad? They said that it’s not the same taste as the “real” garlic or ginger.

    Love your site!

  5. Connie says:

    I can’t tell. I’ve never used bottled garlic except the toasted kind and that’s for garnishing only. Bottle ginger I have not even seen.

    hi miss connie,
    is it ok to prepare the chicken ahead of time, say, boil the chicken tonight and cook the menudo tomorrow? i’m pressed for time every morning and if this recipe calls for 2 hrs boiling time, naku baka 2am pa lang e nagluluto na ako! LOL… ok lang kaya if i store the boiled chicken in the fridge? di kaya maapektuhan ang lasa nya?
    thanks po. btw, i tried some of your recipes and it is always a hit! your site is really a great help. thanks again!

  1. [...] Chicken Menudo For me hearty spice filled soups have always been the best hangover cure. This recipe is a little more difficult than the previous two, but once you cut up everyone all you do is simmer and wait. Menudo is usually done with pork or beef but chicken is more healthy and provides plenty of hangover relief. [...]
