Sisig is an iconic Filipino dish that originated in Pampanga, the culinary capital of the Philippines. Traditionally made from chopped pork parts (most commonly cheeks, ears, and liver), the meat is first boiled, then grilled or fried, and finally finely chopped and sautéed with onions, chili, and plenty of calamansi juice (a small Filipino lime). It is served sizzling hot, often with a fried egg on top. Sisig is known for its contrasting textures – from crispy to tender – and its complex flavor profile: spicy, salty, sour, and umami. The Lemon Pepper version adds a modern, refreshing dimension to this classic, perfectly balancing the meat's heat and juiciness with a citrusy brightness. Thanks to Mama Sita’s, you can recreate this legendary dish in your own kitchen and enjoy its authentic taste with an innovative twist.
