Spicy Chicken Adobo

Ingredients

  • 1 kg chicken thighs (skin on, bone-in)
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 8 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 onion (chopped)
  • 2-3 bay leaves
  • 1 tablespoon peppercorns
  • 2-3 red chili peppers (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon oil

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a pan and brown the chicken on all sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, sauté garlic, onion, and chili peppers until fragrant.
  3. Add soy sauce, vinegar, water, brown sugar, bay leaves, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Return the chicken to the pan and coat it with the sauce. Cover and cook for around 35-40 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
  5. Remove the chicken from the pan and let the sauce thicken by simmering it for a few more minutes.
  6. Serve the chicken with rice, drizzled with the sauce on top.

Now, I know some of you may be intimidated by the long list of ingredients, but trust me, it’s worth it. The combination of soy sauce, vinegar, and chili peppers creates a perfect balance of salty, sour, and spicy flavors. Plus, the brown sugar adds a touch of sweetness that offsets the heat from the chili peppers.
