Lechon manok is a Filipino spit-roasted chicken dish made with chicken marinated in a mixture of garlic, bay leaf, onion, black pepper, soy sauce, and patis (fish sauce). The marinade may also be sweetened with muscovado or brown sugar. It is distinctively stuffed with tanglad (lemongrass) and roasted over charcoal. It is typically eaten dipped in a toyomansi or silimansi mixture of soy sauce, calamansi, and labuyo chilis. It is paired with white rice or puso and commonly served with atchara pickles as a side dish. It is a very popular dish in the Philippines and is readily available at roadside restaurants.{{cite news |last1=Santos |first1=Rachelle |title=Lechon Manok |url=https://www.yummy.ph/recipe/lechon-manok |access-date=January 20, 2019 |publisher=Yummy.ph |date=September 17, 2014}}{{cite news |access-date=January 20, 2019|title=Lechon Manok Recipe |url=https://panlasangpinoy.com/2016/10/11/lechon-manok-recipe/ |publisher=Panlasang Pinoy Recipe}}{{cite news |title=Lechon Manok (Filipino Style Roasted Chicken) |url=http://www.panlasangpinoymeatrecipes.com/lechon-manok-filipino-style-roasted-chicken.htm |access-date=January 20, 2019 |publisher=Panlasang Pinoy Meaty Recipes}}{{cite news |title=Lechon Manok |url=https://www.angsarap.net/2014/12/26/lechon-manok/ |access-date=January 20, 2019 |publisher=Ang Sarap |date=November 18, 2016}}{{cite news |title=Lechon Manok |url=http://www.filipinochow.com/lechon-manok/ |access-date=January 20, 2019 |publisher=Filipino Chow |date=January 10, 2018}}
