Ingredients

CHICKEN AND MARINADE:

3 garlic cloves, minced

750 grams/1.5-pound chicken thigh fillets, boneless and skinless (5-6 pieces)

1/3 c. + 2 tablespoons white vinegar

1/3 c. (85ml) soy sauce, ordinary all-purpose or light (not dark soy sauce

4 bay leaves (fresh) or 3 dried

FOR COOKING:

3 garlic cloves, minced

2 tablespoons oil, separated (vegetable, canola, or peanut)

1 tablespoon whole black pepper (sub 2 teaspoons coarsely cracked pepper)

1 small brown onion, diced

1 tablespoon whole black pepper (sub 2 teaspoons coarsely cracked pepper)

1 1/2 c. (375 ml) water

2 tablespoons brown sugar

SERVING:

2 green onions/scallions, sliced (garnish)

How to make Filipino Chicken Adobo (Flavour Kapow!)

Step 1: In a bowl, add the chicken and marinade ingredients. Mix well until combined. Let the chicken marinate for at least 20 minutes or up to overnight.

Step 2: In a skillet, heat 1 tbsp oil over high heat. Take the chicken out of the marinade and place it in the pan. Set the marinade aside. Sear both sides of the chicken for about a minute per side or until browned. Make sure not to cook the chicken all the way through. Set the chicken aside when done.

Step 3: In the same skillet, heat the rest of the oil. Then, add the garlic and onion. Cook for about 1 1/2 minutes. Next, add the reserved marinade along with water, sugar, and black pepper. Bring everything to a simmer, then adjust the heat to medium-high. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes.

Step 4: Return the chicken to the skillet, smooth-side down. Let everything simmer for about 20 to 25 minutes, uncovered, turning the chicken at around 15 minutes. Cook until the sauce has reduced to a thick jam-like syrup.

Step 5: At this point, if the sauce isn’t thick enough. Transfer the chicken to a plate and let the sauce simmer. Once the sauce has thickened, add the chicken back to the skillet and coat in the glaze.

Step 6: Serve the Filipino Chicken Adobo immediately over rice. Enjoy!
