This one-pot Filipino Chicken Adobo recipe from Food Network uses only a handful of ingredients, including garlic and soy sauce.

Filipino Chicken Adobo

chicken thighs

white vinegar

soy sauce

garlic, crushed

black peppercorns

bay leaves

rice,

Combine the chicken thighs, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, peppercorns and bay leaves in a large pot. Cover and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for 1 to 3 hours. 

Bring the chicken to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat, cover and let simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the lid and simmer until the sauce is reduced and thickened and the chicken is tender, about 20 more minutes. Serve with steamed rice.

Loved it. Added a little fish sauce the marinade and it came out delicious. I also used the Asian white vinegar suggested. Yum

Opps I made a mistake I meant  to put 5 stars sorry its very delicious thank you  have a wonderful day ❤ 

Learned this in the Navy stationed in Hawaii, If you boil it then you lose some of the flavor..just let it simmer. I add onions and sometimes use a rotisserie chicken to save time.

This is the classic adobo! Love the comments as it is true there are variants and many families have their “secret ingredient” or special twist on the basics. I love adding coconut milk as one version.

This is the way I remember my Filipino Mother and Grandmother making chicken Adobo! I was just a child when I would watch my mother making this fish.. however for the life I’d me I couldn’t remember what all she had put into the adobo and how long to cook for. This recipe is exactly what I’ve been looking for! Thank you for keeping the “original” Filipino- style Chicken Adobo 

So simple, yet so delicious. Everyone loves it, even the kiddos!
