I got hooked on adobo when I worked with a number of Philippinos. Yum, yum, yum. And the thing is, everyone had a different recipe, just like Italians with tomato sauce. :-) I'm going to try this one. Thanks!

This looks really good. I'd heard of chicken adobo but didn't know what it was. I've saved it to try. Thanks.

I love chicken adobo! One of my faves to cook too. I am a Filipina but born and raised in Hawaii. Land of many many cultures and foods! Yes, it's an absolute must...you must have rice with the chicken adobo! I agree! Thanks for sharing this. I can almost savour the aroma of the adobo in the air! :)

I almost forgot!! Made this a few nights back, and I made a couple of changes.... I used BOTH skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts and thighs AND pork back ribs. I omitted the potato, used a sweet potato (yam) because I had one to use up :) I used a blend of rice, apple cider, white and balsamic vinegars, but mostly white vinegar. Couldn't find cane vinegar, so I used a splash of mirin (a white Japanese syrup) to help balance the vinegars. VERY good :)
