This Chicken Adobo is made of chicken cuts slowly cooked in garlic, onion, soy sauce, and coconut milk. There is a delicious balance of salty and savory thick sauce. This is one of Filipino’s favorite dishes for a good reason.
For some reason, I love to use chicken when I’m thinking of cooking adobo. This melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and juiciness are best combined with hot steamed rice and iced cooled soft drinks for lunch or dinner.
