What Is Sipo Egg with Chicken?

Sipo egg is made with a creamy white sauce coating a variety of vegetable chunks, ham, shrimp, and quail eggs. It’s a classic Kapampangan dish that’s chock full of veggies, meat, and a whole lot of flavor.

To level-up an already well-loved vegetable dish, we swapped the shrimp with chicken and upgraded the white sauce from simple to irresistible. We didn’t use cream but we kept it creamy and delicious by using a pack of Knorr Cream of Mushroom Soup (available here) and evaporated milk. To make sure you know there are mushrooms in the dish, we tossed in a can of the caps in with the other vegetables, too.
