Filipino Style Recipe: chicken caldereta or kalderetang manok is another chicken dish that commonly served by Filipinos. This is similar to beef caldereta and chicken afritada. It is basically chicken marinated and sauteed, then cooked with tomato sauce, bell pepper and potatoes. Some may add liver spread to make the sauce creamy. This is a mouth-watering dish that my family loves so much.
