We haven’t made Chicken Adobo in a while, and my fiancé had 4 pieces of chicken and 3 bowls of rice last night …. Yes, it is THAT GOOD.
Chicken Adobo is a recipe I am confident to say that is well-loved by everyone. It has a perfect balance between savory, sweet and tangy. There are many ways to make chicken adobo, but this is my go-to fail-proof version that is made in just one pot!
The chicken adobo is tender and juicy and filled with flavor, but the best part is for sure the sauce that pairs PERFECTLY with rice.
The sauce is packed with flavor from caramelized onions, bay leaf, chicken stock, and chicken juices.
