Filipino Chicken Adobo Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups of white vinegar
• 3 Tablespoon vegetable oil
• ¾ Soy Sauce
• 4 Pounds of chicken
• 3 Garlic cloves, crushed
• ½ tablespoon whole black peppercorns, crushed lightly
• 2 Bay leaves

Cooking Directions

1. In a large pot, combine the chicken, vinegar, garlic, bay leaves, pepper and 1 cup of water. Bring the mixture to a boil, cover and let simmer for 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and let the liquid boil until it reduces to 1 cup. This will take about 10 minutes.
2. Let the sauce cool, removing the bay leaves and skin fat from the surface. Serve the chicken on a rimmed plate, pouring the sauce over the chicken. Goes well with warm rice.
3. In a large skillet, heat the oil over high heat until hot. Be careful not to let it burn. Add the chicken and sauté it until brown, this will take about 5 minutes.
