Chicken Adobo with Rice
Classic Filipino adobo featuring tender chicken simmered in a savory sauce of soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and peppercorns, served over rice.
Ingredients
- about 680 g Chicken thighs
- 1/2 cup Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1/4 cup White vinegar
- 6 cloves Garlic
- 1 tbsp Black peppercorns
- 2 leaves Bay leaves
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Water
- 4 cups Cooked white rice
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1In a large bowl, combine the about 680 g Chicken thighs with the 1/2 cup Soy sauce, 1/4 cup White vinegar, 6 cloves Garlic (minced), 1 tbsp Black peppercorns, and 2 leaves Bay leaves. Stir everything together to coat the chicken. Let this marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- 2Place a large pot or Dutch oven on the stove and heat the 2 tbsp Vegetable oil over medium heat (about 150°C or 150°C).
- 3Carefully add the marinated chicken thighs to the hot pot. Sear the chicken on all sides until it is nicely browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Do not crowd the pot; sear in batches if necessary.
- 4Pour the 1 cup Water into the pot with the chicken. Increase the heat to bring the liquid to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer gently for 30-40 minutes. The chicken is done when it is very tender and reaches an internal temperature of 74°C.
- 5Remove the bay leaves from the pot. Serve the tender chicken and its sauce hot over the 4 cups Cooked white rice.
