How To Make Traditional Chicken Adobo

Traditional Chicken Adobo Recipe. A traditional Filipino chicken dish suitable for the whole family. Do it in Philippines style and serve with white rice. Experience our Traditional Chicken Adobo recipe.

You Will Need

  • 1 whole chicken
  • 3 Tbsp white vinegar
  • 100 ml soy sauce
  • fresh black pepper
  • 2 tsp brown sugar
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 bay leaves
  • salt to taste
  • 500 ml chicken stock
  • 1 sharp knife
  • 1 cutting board
  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 large pot with a lid

Step 1:

Prepare the ingredients

Cut the whole chicken into serving pieces of thighs, breasts and wings.

Step 2:

Make the marinade

Thoroughly combine all the ingredients in a bowl except for the chicken and stock. When it is mixed together well, place the chicken pieces in it. Cover the bowl and allow this to marinate for 1-3 hours. This will enable all the juices to be embedded into the chicken, making it more tender as well as giving it a deeper taste.

Step 3:

Cook the meal

Put the stove on a high heat. Then place the chicken with all the marinade and the stock into the pot and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover the pan and simmer for 30 minutes.

Step 4:

Finish cooking

Uncover the pan and allow it to simmer very gently for an additional 15 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated and the chicken is lightly brown.

Step 5:

Serving suggestions

Traditionally, Adobos are always served with white rice which is the staple diet of the Philippines.

My grandmother and those before her have always and only used the adobo basic ingredients and it always came out delicious. Just use three cloves of garlic, a cup of white vinegar and a cup of soysauce and thats it none of this other nonsense ingredients... let it boil,stir occassionally, simmer and let the sauce reduce. serve a little soupy with white rice. SARAP!

using soy sauce can make it salty, I now used mama sita's oyster sauce, and I don't marinate , I just add everything in a pot. It's easier and less dirty dishes, especially for a full time mom like me.

I'm sure it's just as good with the addition of chicken stock.

A good starter adobo recipe but Filipinos don't use stock or white wine vinegar. Cider or regular white distilled vinegar works as does Filipino white vinegar which is distilled from palm sugar. This is also good for pork!
