Inspired by Melissa Hemsley’s grandmother’s cherished family recipe, this modern take on Tinolang Manok celebrates the balance between heritage and nourishment.


Traditionally made with homemade chicken stock, Chris Laurie reimagined this Filipino classic using Hunter & Gather Grass Fed Beef Bone Broth, a naturally high-protein base that brings depth, comfort and a real-food richness to every spoonful.


Slow-simmered chicken thighs, fragrant lemongrass, ginger, and papaya infuse the broth with warmth and vitality, while a drizzle of Hunter & Gather Extra Virgin Organic Olive Oil adds healthy, flavour-rich fats.


Featuring: Hunter & Gather Bone Broth


The result is a wholesome, ancestrally inspired meal that honours traditional home cooking while embracing modern, nutrient-conscious living, perfect for sharing around the table on cooler days.
