I emphasize this on all of my recipes, more of anything you prefer may be added to recipes I post. I dont cook from written recipes, just from memory. This is a simpler version of pollo guisado, modified to help busy cooks that are multi-tasking throughout the evening.

I season my chicken really good with Adobo first and then I brown it. I also add a 8oz can of Corona with 2 cups of Chicken stock. I feel like that helps with the salt intake.

I don't really cook but I try to surprise my girl with something n the pollo came out banging!! I read the comments about how it was salty and what not, so I added one of the Chinese spicy Sause and it dead hit the spot. Thanks a lot for helping me make this miss.

This reminded me of my Abuela's cooking, It was delicious. So easy to prepare, tasty and tender.
