   PILIPINO STYLE ADOBO RECIPE 
 
 

What is adobo?

Adobo is a cooking method used in the Philippines. It involves braising protein in a liquid composed of vinegar, soy sauce, peppercorns, and garlic. This cooking method is a combination of Filipino and Chinese cultures. Filipino natives used to use vinegar and salt to preserve food in the tropical climate of the Philippines. When Chinese traders arrived, they brought with them their native ingredients like soy sauce, which took the place of salt in adobo.

The name adobo is a derivative of the Spanish word adobar meaning marinade or pickling sauce. A Spanish Friar named Pedro de San Buenaventura is credited as the first person to call this cooking method adobo. Specifically, he called it “adobo de los naturales”.

 steps on how to cook adobong manok:  


First heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a big pot. I used a Dutch oven. Add chicken thighs skin side down and sear on both sides. Once done searing the chicken, add the garlic, oyster sauce, and soy sauce. Mix to the coat the chicken. Add the vinegar, brown sugar, bay leaves, and peppercorns. Bring the liquid to a boil and lower to a simmer. Simmer on low heat for 1 hour. Flip the chicken every 20 minutes, so each side gets an even amount of color. Serve chicken over a bed of rice. I personally also like eating this with pickled vegetables. I don’t think this is very traditional but  it’s good!
