Ingredients:
1 kilo chicken
1/2 kilo green papaya
2 cups thin coconut milk
1 cup thick coconut milk
1 medium-sized onion
4 cloves of garlic
2 thumb-sized ginger
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons fish sauce
3 to 5 long green chilies
Salt to taste
Oil for sauteing

Directions
Heat some oil in a wok. Add the ginger, onions and garlic and saute until light brown. Add the chicken pieces. Saute the chicken until the flesh turns white. Season with fish sauce and black pepper. Saute until the fish smell from the fish sauce disappears and the chicken flesh turns light brown.
Add the thin coconut milk and let the chicken pieces submerge on it. Simmer for 10 minutes under medium heat.
Add the green papaya slices and stir. Continue simmering for another 10 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low heat and add the thick coconut milk. Season with salt.
Add the long green chilies and stir. Continue cooking around 10 minutes under low heat until the sauce becomes thicker.
Transfer the ginataang manok with papaya to a serving dish and serve with hot rice. Enjoy!
