Sizzling Chicken Sisig is the chicken version of the popular sisig dish. This recipe is quick and easy and can be low in fat depending on the type and amount of mayonnaise that will be used.
Sisig is known to be a fatty dish because it usually uses fatty parts of the pig such as the ears and face; the original recipe also uses the brain of the pig as a binder. Chicken sisig, on the other hand, can be considered as a healthier alternative because chicken meat has lesser fat. This recipe in particular makes uses of skinless chicken breast; it is low in fat and high in protein.
Chicken liver plays a big role in the success of this dish because it contributes a lot to the flavor of the entire dish. As I’ve mentioned in the video, it is not an issue if you do not want to add liver because the dish will still taste good — adding liver will make the taste better though.

Hi vanjo thank you for your wonderful website. I always refer to your website whenever I want to do baking or cooking such a big help..thanks uli.
Rose says
Thank you, Vanjo for your easy-to-follow recipes. You’re wonderful. Can small piece of fried chicken skin be added to the sizzling chicken sisig to have the crispy texture?
Vanjo Merano says
Thanks Rose. Sure you can, but try to limit it since chicken skin is high in cholesterol.
Eric says
hindi po ba aasim yung sisig pag may mayo?
Vanjo Merano says
Eric, I don’t think that mayo makes a dish sour,unless you are using sandwich spread. If you give this recipe a try, you’ll see that the mayo helps balance the taste of this sisig dish and gives it a nice texture.
Sam says
Is it supposed to be crispy? Mine was soft. Shall i cook it longer?
Vanjo Merano says
Sam, this is not supposed to be crispy. Cooking the chicken longer can make it tough instead, so I do not recommend you to do that. Skin and fat content have something to do to with the crispy texture of a dish; this can be applicable to pork, but not with chicken.
al ongsuco says
maybe you can add crushed chicharon if you want a crunchy bite, like the sisig of Sisig Hooray 😀

Riza says
I don’t have a grill. Can I broil the chicken instead? Can I use the thigh meat instead? What do you use for seasoning?
Vanjo Merano says
Hi Riza. Yes, you can broil the chicken. You can use any part of the chicken for this recipe… and I did not use any seasoning before I grilled the chicken needed.
Karen says
Hi Mr. Vanjo!! Do you recommend to marinate first the chicken with salt, pepper, & crushed garlic before grilling it??
Vanjo Merano says
Karen, its not necessary but you can do it if you prefer.
Kristina says
Hi. This chicken sisig looks good. Can you boil the chicken breasts instead of grill?
Vanjo Merano says
We grill the chicken to get the smoky flavor. Boiling the chicken is also possible, but not recommended.
Rodel says
Kabayan -- improving ang pictures…looks appetizing. What body and glass did you use here?
Vanjo Merano says
Thanks Rodel. The photo was taken using a Nikon D90 with AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G. I’m hoping to get hold of a AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8G lens for a more detailed shot.
Myles R. says
Can I make this using ground turkey? You said that the mayo is an alternative ingredient. Do you have a lower fat substitute to the alternative ingredient? Thanks in advance for your reply.
Vanjo Merano says
As much as possible, I will refrain from using ground meat in making Sisig. Grilled and chopped turkey breast will be better. Then again, it is your choice.
You can try using regular (unflavored) yogurt as a substitute for mayonnaise. It will not taste as good, but it is tolerable and better for the health.
