  • ½ cup cane vinegar or coconut vinegar
  • ½ cup soy sauce

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a pot, combine all except the last two ingredients. Place the pot on the stove and cover with lid. Bring to boil at medium heat for about 20 minutes or until the meat is tender.
  2. Remove the meat from the pot and let the sauce simmer for a few minutes more (about 10 minutes) until the sauce is reduced to half.
  3. In a pan or skillet, sauté garlic in hot oil until browned and crisp, reserve a tablespoon for toppings. Add the chicken meat (without the sauce) and sear for a few minutes (about 2-3 minutes). Add the reduced sauce and simmer for another minute or two or until the sauce gets thicker.
  4. Transfer Chicken Adobo in serving plate and sprinkle with the roasted garlic if desired. Serve with hot steamed rice.
