Chicken Adobo

Submitted by Maeby

"Inspired by Sam the Cooking Guy. This is especially yummy served over rice (so that the rice sops up all of the juices. Yum!)"

 

• Ready In: 1hr 10mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 4-6

ingredients

• 1 - 1 1⁄2 lb chicken (my favorites are chicken thighs, drumsticks, breast, skin optional)
• 2 cups soy sauce (I use Aloha)
• 1 cup white vinegar
• 2 tablespoons ground pepper
• 4 tablespoons brown sugar
• 12 -15 garlic cloves, minced (I use a garlic press)
• 6 bay leaves

directions

1. In a large pot, combine soy sauce, vinegar, ground pepper, brown sugar, minced garlic and bay leaves.
2. If using chicken with skin, place skin side down in pot. Over high heat and uncovered, bring to a boil.
3. Once boiling, immediately turn down to a simmer and cover with lid.
4. After 30 minutes, remove lid and turn chicken over. Simmer 20 - 30 minutes more.
