In reply to Daniel. Hello, Daniel, I'm sorry to hear the recipe didn't work well for you. Rellenong manok does take a bit of work, and yes, it can burst if overstuffed. The stuffing will be a little loose and wet when fresh out of the oven. The roast has to rest for a few minutes before cutting to allow the juices to redistribute and for the stuffing to firm up.

I tried making this for Christmas Eve dinner, and the stuffing oozed out. Thankfully, no one at dinner was Filipino and had no idea how badly things had gone. I’m thinking I must have over stuffed it and possibly didn’t sew it well enough? I added celery to the stuffing but otherwise followed it it a tee with a 5+lb bird. I had a lot of stuffing leftover too. I’m also wondering if I had too much moisture in the stuffing? It didn’t have quite the meatball texture. It was wetter than that. Do you have any thoughts?

Hi!

Is it okay to use beef for stuffing chicken relleno instead of pork? since pork is not available where I am . I am worried the flavor.

In reply to Emelie Arzadon. Yes, you can use beef but the texture might be a little different.

Hi Lalaine....tried your recipe for relleno manok several times and never failed, my family loves it, and most of all, your my encyclopedia when it comes to Filipino cooking.
I’m getting there when it comes to deboning, getting better and better after my 3rd time.
Maraming salamat, from San Diego

I tried to debone a chicken for the first time yesterday and it was quite successful. It was pretty easy, just use a sharp deboning knife and you're good to go.

I just watch a video on youtube.

In reply to Gem. Hi Gem, I haven't personally tried it but yes, you can definitely fry the chicken. It's actually the traditional way of making relleno especially since the oven was not widely available then. Try not to overfill too much so the skin doesn't burst.
