My mom always makes her saucy chicken adobo recipe when I come home to visit. I think it's even better the next day as leftovers-she says it's because of the vinegar. - Michael Moya, Taste of Home Senior Marketing Manager

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

750g / 1.5 lb chicken thigh fillets (, boneless and skinless (5 - 6 pieces) (Note 1))
3 garlic cloves (, minced)
1/3 cup (85ml) soy sauce (, ordinary all purpose or light (not dark soy sauce, Note 2))
1/3 cup + 2 tbsp white vinegar
4 bay leaves (fresh) or 3 dried
2 tbsp oil (, separated (vegetable, canola or peanut))
3 garlic cloves (, minced)
1 small brown onion (, diced)
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) water
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp whole black pepper ((sub 2 tsp coarse cracked pepper))
2 green onions/scallions (, sliced (garnish))

Steps:

  • Combine Chicken and Marinade ingredients in a bowl. Marinate for at least 20 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over high heat. Remove chicken from marinade (reserve marinade) and place in the pan. Sear both sides until browned - about 1 minute on each side. Do not cook the chicken all the way through.
  • Remove chicken skillet and set aside.
  • Heat the remaining oil in skillet. Add garlic and onion, cook 1 1/2 minutes.
  • Add the reserved marinade, water, sugar and black pepper. Bring it to a simmer then turn heat down to medium high. Simmer 5 minutes.
  • Add chicken smooth side down. Simmer uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes (no need to stir), turning chicken at around 15 minutes, until the sauce reduces down to a thick jam-like syrup.
  • If the sauce isn't thick enough, remove chicken onto a plate and let the sauce simmer by itself - it will thicken much quicker - then return chicken to the skillet to coat in the glaze.
  • Coat chicken in glaze then serve over rice. Pictured in post as a healthy dinner plate (415 calories) with cauliflower rice and Ginger Smashed Cucumbers.

CHICKEN ADOBO



Chicken Adobo image

It is the national dish of the Philippines, and the subject of intense and delicious debate across its 7,100 islands whether made with chicken, pork or fish. Whichever, the protein is braised in vinegar until pungent and rich, sweet and sour and salty at once, then sometimes crisped at the edges in high heat, and always served with the remaining sauce. Its excellence derives from the balance of its flavors, in the alchemy of the process. Cooking softens the acidity of the vinegar, which then combines with the flavor of the meat to enhance it. Whether consumed in Manila's heat or on the edge of a New York winter, adobo holds the power to change moods and alter dining habits. It is a difficult dish to cook just once. The recipe that follows derives from one given to The Times in 2011 by Amy Besa, who runs, with her husband, Romy Dorotan, the excellent Purple Yam restaurant in Ditmas Park, Brooklyn.

Time 4h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup coconut milk
¼ cup soy sauce
1½ cup rice vinegar
12 garlic cloves, peeled
3 whole bird's-eye chilies or other fiery chili
3 bay leaves
1½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
3 to 4 pounds chicken thighs

Steps:

  • Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a large, nonreactive bowl or resealable plastic freezer bag. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Refrigerate overnight or for at least 2 hours.
  • Place chicken and marinade in a large lidded pot or Dutch oven over high heat and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and tender, around 30 minutes.
  • Heat broiler. Transfer chicken pieces to a large bowl, raise heat under the pot to medium-high, and reduce the sauce until it achieves almost the consistency of cream, about 10 minutes. Remove bay leaves and chilies.
  • Place chicken pieces on a roasting pan and place under broiler for 5 to 7 minutes, until they begin to caramelize. Remove, turn chicken, baste with sauce and repeat, 3 to 5 minutes more. Return chicken to sauce and cook for a few minutes more, then place on a platter and drizzle heavily with sauce.

FILIPINO CHICKEN ADOBO



Filipino Chicken Adobo image

Traditional filipino chicken adobo! I always make enough to last a week! This is also great with my savory garlic fried rice recipe (optional)

Provided by Mebriella

Categories     Stew

Time 2h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs chicken, of your choice (bone-in or boneless)
3/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup vinegar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/16 teaspoon msg
1 large onion, sliced (optional)
2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Place chicken in a big stock pot.
  • Put in all your ingredients, you don't have to mix, it will mix when it boils.
  • After you add the ingredients, put in enough water to cover the chicken.
  • Bring to a full boil.
  • Once it starts boiling, turn the heat down (medium-high heat) enough to where it's a soft boil (boiling but not over boiling out of pot) and cover with lid but with a crack.
  • Stir every half hour or so.
  • Let it boil all the way until there is about only 1 inch of liquid left. This is usually about an hour to an hour and a half.
  • The chicken should also be dark brown all the way through, if the meat is still whitish then you need to cook it longer.
  • Add the sliced onions and stir if using.
  • Cook for only 5 min just enough for the onions to turn soft.
  • Serve alone or with cooked white rice or my savory garlic fried rice.
