What is Chicken Tocino?
Tocino is a Philippine meal usually served for breakfast, but also a great choice for dinner or lunch accompanied with rice and a sunny-side-up egg cooked in butter. The meat is usually left in a marinade overnight. Pork and chicken are popular meats in the Philippines, and this dish may be made with either pork or chicken. In our dish, we've chosen to use chicken.

Let me tell you something: this Chicken Tocino recipe is a game-changer. The chicken is marinated in delicious tastes and has a little bit of crunch from the caramelized sauce.

It's an excellent dish to have on hand for a quick and delectable dinner, or even just as a delicious supper any day of the week.

The dish is also a favorite among children and adults, so you're sure to keep everyone satisfied.
Ingredients for Chicken Tocino
The Chicken Tocino recipe is a great substitute for pork or beef tocino. As you know, chicken is healthier than the other two meats since it has less fat. Chicken tocino is a flavorful dish that's savory and tangy with a little bit of spice and sweetness.

All you'll need for this dish are the following ingredients:

 	1 pound of your favorite cut of chicken (breast or thighs), in chunks
 	1 can (8 oz) pineapple chunks plus juice if desired, or 1 cup of fresh pineapple cubes -&gt; 
 	3 tablespoons ketchup
 	3 tbsp brown sugar
 	2 tbsp chili sauce
 	1 tsp garlic powder
 	½ tsp salt
 	½ tsp black pepper Freshly ground black pepper
 	⅓ cup of water 
 	Pinch of salt to taste. 
 	Try using the following combination: 1 tablespoon oil 1 teaspoon soy sauce.

How to Make Chicken Tocino
Cube the chicken meat and set it aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine pineapple juice, ketchup, chili sauce, sugar, salt, and garlic powder or minced garlic.

Toss to coat with the marinade. Combine the chicken in the bowl and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least a day or more. Remove slices of chicken from the marinade and set aside, discarding the remaining marinade. Heat up a large frying pan in medium-high and add cooking oil.

Place chicken on the hot pan and fry both sides for about 5-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and serve hot. Enjoy!
First Marinate the Chicken
Let your chicken marinade as long as possible, trust me. However, as long as you marinate it for at least 4 hours to cure the meat, it will still come out great. Anyway, begin by combining your pineapple juice, ketchup, sugar, chili sauce, and seasonings in a bowl.

After that, add your cubed chicken to the mixing bowl and allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.


Next, boil the Tocino.
After all those flavors are locked in from the marinade, this step is to get all the extra liquid out. Put the chicken with the sauce in a pan over medium-high heat and let it start to boil. As it reduces, be careful that it doesn’t burn.

Add the water in and let it cook out. As the sauce starts to become a glaze be sure to keep things moving as the sugar in the sauce is very susceptible to burning, we want it to caramelize, not burn.
Lastly, Pan-fry and finish the dish.
We are almost done already! I told you it was easy, add oil and let it start to heat up. Start frying your chicken while continually tossing them. When the sauce gets dark and sticky you know it’s done. Plate with your rice and whatever other sides you choose.

Happy Eats!
Best way to reheat and store your Chicken Tocino
Step 1: Preheat the oven before proceeding. Set the oven to 350°F and let the chicken rest at room temperature while it warms up.

Step 2: Add moisture. When the oven is fully heated, place the chicken in a baking dish with several tablespoons of chicken stock or water—just enough so that there's a thin layer of liquid in the pan. Then cover the pan tightly with two layers of foil. The steam generated by the water will ensure that the meat stays juicy.

Step 3: Reheat. Place the chicken in the oven and leave it there until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove your chicken from the oven once it has heated through; it should be juicy and delicious.
Freezing Leftovers
In general, most items will keep in the freezer for about three months. After that, you'll probably develop freezer burn. If you have a deep freezer, your frozen foods may last a bit longer since the freezer is opened and closed less frequently, and things at the bottom are less exposed.

When you are freezing cooked chicken tocino, a vacuum sealer might be a good option. I recommend sealing it in one-cup portions so that you can easily remove exactly what you need. Some vacuum sealers claim to keep freezer burn at bay for up to three years.
