For a richer flavor, consider using dark soy sauce instead of light soy sauce. Feel free to add a bay leaf or two to the simmering sauce for an extra layer of aroma. Adobo is traditionally served with steamed rice, which perfectly complements the savory sauce. If you prefer a sweeter adobo, you can add a tablespoon of brown sugar or honey to the sauce during the final simmering stage.

01 Step
Recipe View 5 mins In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the water, vinegar, soy sauce, peppercorns, garlic, and salt. Stir well to ensure the salt is dissolved. Add the chicken pieces, ensuring they are mostly submerged in the liquid. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View 30 mins Reduce the heat to low, leaving the pot uncovered, and gently simmer the chicken until it is cooked through and incredibly tender. The cooking time will depend on the size of the chicken pieces, but generally, this will take around 25 to 35 minutes. The liquid will reduce slightly and the flavors will meld together beautifully.
03 Step
Recipe View 6 mins Once the chicken is cooked, carefully remove the pieces from the pot using tongs and set aside. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken pieces to the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Brown the chicken on all sides until golden and slightly caramelized. This step adds a wonderful depth of flavor and texture. (5-7 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View 13 mins Return the browned chicken pieces to the pot with the reserved sauce. Cover the pot and simmer over medium heat, allowing the sauce to reduce further and thicken to your desired consistency. This will concentrate the flavors and create a luscious, glossy sauce that coats the chicken. (10-15 minutes)
