Chicken adobo is a tasty dish from the Philippines, and is one of my personal favorites. It is a staple you will find in nearly any Filipino household. I'll walk you through how to make this super easy dish.

Ingredients
  • So how much of everything do I use? This is the beauty of adobo. Adjust everything to your taste. You can't really go wrong. Some people don't like too much vinegar, so they prefer a 1:1 ratio of vinegar and soy sauce. Other people like the vinegar but prefer to use a milder rice vinegar over standard white. Do whatever you want! (Don't like chicken? Pork adobo is great too!)
  • 3lbs chicken thigh
  • 3/4c white vinegar
  • 1/4c soy sauce
  • 1/4ts peppercorns (crushed)
  • 1/4ts salt
  • 3 garlic cloves (chopped or crushed)
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1/4 of a medium onion (chopped)

Directions
  1. Step 1:
  2. Chop the onion and garlic.
  3. Step 2:
  4. Fully chopped:
  5. Step 3:
  6. Get out your soy sauce and vinegar.
  7. Step 4:
  8. Add the soy sauce and vinegar to our chicken. Go ahead and toss in those onions and garlic, too.
  9. Step 5:
  10. Next step is to take your salt, ground peppercorns, and bay leaves.
  11. Step 6:
  12. Add 1/4ts peppercorns (crushed), 1/4ts salt and 2 bay leaves to the pot.
  13. Step 7:
  14. Mix it all up very well.
  15. Step 8:
  16. And then cover it. We need to let this marinate for 1-3 hours.
  17. Step 9:
  18. Two and a half hours seems fine to me. Let's get this baby cooking. Bring 'er up to a boil, and then let it all simmer for about 40 minutes (or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.)
  19. Step 10:
  20. Almost done:
  21. Step 11:
  22. Serve in a bowl with some of the sauce. Ideal sidedishes are steamed rice, and veggies (not pictured.)
  23. That's all there is to making chicken adobo. I hope you all enjoy this simple (but excellent!) Filipino dish.
