Chicken Adobo
A classic Filipino Chicken Adobo made with tender bone-in chicken simmered in a rich soy sauce and vinegar glaze with garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns.
Ingredients
Instructions
Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat and add the cooking oil.
Brown the bone in chicken thighs on both sides until lightly golden, then remove excess fat if necessary.
Return the chicken to the skillet and add soy sauce, white vinegar, water, lightly crushed garlic cloves, bay leaves, whole black peppercorns, and brown sugar.
Bring to a gentle simmer without stirring excessively.
Cover and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes, turning the chicken halfway through, until tender and fully cooked.
Remove the lid during the last 10 minutes to allow the sauce to reduce slightly.
Let rest for 5 minutes so the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
Serve hot with the sauce spooned over the top.
