Easy Chicken Adobo

The easiest chicken adobo you’ll ever make! No fuss and less tending. Perfect for days when you are craving for your favorite Filipino dish and don’t have a lot of time for cooking.

I usually make my adobo using equal parts of soy and vinegar. If you want a less salty version, just reduced the soy sauce to about 1 tablespoon.

If you’re using a wide pan instead of a pot, the sauce may be reduced quickly so remember to add a little bit more of water.

For a sweeter version of adobo, just add a two teaspoon of sugar.

For a dry version, just let the adobo simmer without a cover until desired consistency is achieved.

Serve with plain or garlic fried rice. You can also add boiled eggs too! Enjoy
