The Heritage Story of Surol Chicken. 💛
A comforting heritage dish from Camiguin Island, Surol Chicken reflects the island’s rich coconut culture and soulful way of cooking. Simmered in coconut milk with ginger, garlic, lemongrass, and native oregano locally known in Bisaya as Kalabo, the dish is known for its light yet deeply aromatic broth that brings warmth in every serving.
At Cucina Higala, Surol Chicken is honored as part of our Mindanao Heritage Selections—celebrating the simple, nourishing flavors of Northern Mindanao and the culinary traditions passed on through generations.
