Notes & Tips

  • Make sure to heat the metal plate and be extra careful when getting them.
  • Always precook the chicken or any meats that you will use. Sisig is best when they are serving as sizzling.
  • Add the chicken liver last and don’t overmix it as it can crumble the chicken liver.
  • If you don’t prefer chicken, you can always replace it with other meats like pork, beef, turkey or even fish.
  • If you don’t have metal plate, this can also be prepared using oven safe skillet.
  • You can replace calamansi juice with lime juice or lemon juice.
  • This recipe is also perfect with steamed rice or veggies.
  • Adding eggs on top is common. Commonly while the plate is still hot, one will add an egg and mix it all together while the egg cooks.
  • You can add some texture with chicharrons as a topping.
