Chicken Adobo Recipe
Here is the recipe for Chicken Adobo (it changes a lot though):
1 Panful Chicken Thighs (my 15″ Allclad holds 14 thighs)
oil
1 TB diced garlic
1 TB White sugar
1 tsp salt (or to taste)
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
4 bay leaves
1.5 c white vinegar
1.5 c hot water
2/3 c soy sauce
Skin chicken and trim fat off. In a hot pan with hot oil brown the thighs well. As they finish cooking add the garlic. You only want to saute the garlic for 30 seconds or a minute - don’t let it burn. Add the salt, pepper, sugar, bay, vinegar and water. Cook at a simmer for 40 minutes turning chicken every now and again. Add the soy and cook for 20 minutes more - turning. You may need to turn the heat up for the last few minutes to thicken the “sauce” - make sure it does not boil away though.
