Read MoreChicken afritada is a classic Filipino recipe, the kind of thing you’d see served all over the Philippines. My healthy version of this Filipino recipe is made with chicken (sometimes you’ll see it made with beef or pork), and you can control the amount of carbs by leaving out or reducing the amount of potatoes in the afritada.

The result was so good that my family now prefers it over the original recipe.
