Chicken Adobo is a slow-cooked Filipino chicken dish that is well loved by many people. There is nothing not to love about tender, moist, fall-off-the-bone and delicious chicken cooked with a few ingredients, in one pot. This recipe is adapted from Burnt Lumpia‘s cookbook: The Adobo Road Cookbook.
Chicken adobo makes a perfect dish for weeknight dinner as the cooking process is so easy. I just love it that everything gets done in one pot and the ingredients are everyday ingredients that you can get easily in any store. Another plus, you can also make it into slow cooker or crock pot chicken adobo. Either way, this recipe is amazing!

This recipe calls for too much vinegar. Instead of one part soy sauce to two parts vinegar I’d do two parts soy one part vinegar. I’m half Filipino and grew up in the Philippines. This is not how I remember it tasting.

I made and tried this recipe myself and it tastes totally fine. I think the author makes this recipe very accessible to everyone.

Thank you very much for the recipe. I followed all the directions closely and it turned out amazing. I only added a few fresh and slices pepper (medium hot) at the last few minutes. It is the best chiken I have tasted that is cooked by me.

Wow this is crazy good. I’d never had adobo before but thought I’d give it a shot. It is so good I was drinking the sauce with a spoon after dinner. This will become a regular dish. For the record I added about one TBSP of sugar to the sauce, and broiled the chicken at the end to crisp it up.

Instead of fresh garlic, can I use frozen crushed garlic? Also, can apple cider vinegar be substituted for distilled white vinegar? Thanks.
Rasa Malaysia
Yes, but why would you use frozen garlic?
Mia Santiago
I use frozen garlic (which are in cubes; 1 cube = 1 clove garlic), in case I don’t have fresh available. Thanks!

I made this today (I never had Chicken Adobo before) and it was delicious! After I cooked the chicken top and bottom, I removed the chicken to put in broiler for 5 minutes while I reduced the sauce. It was excellent! Thank you for this very easy version of this recipe!
