Sautéed String Beans with Chicken is another easy dinner recipe that we have for you. This recipe involves string beans, which are locally known in the Philippines as “sitaw”. This dish resembles ginisang sitaw in some ways.
I like having Sautéed String Beans with Chicken during ordinary days. Eating this with steamed white rice works best for me. Sometimes, I like having it with a dash of fish sauce and chili flakes. Did you know that you can cook string beans in many ways? Adobong sitaw is probably the simplest. Ginataang sitaw at kalabasa, on the other hand, will make you eat more rice that you usually do.
Aside from chicken, this dish can be prepared using pork or beef slices. You can also use Shrimp and squid rings as a substitute for chicken in this recipe.
