Filipino Chicken Adobo Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken Adobo

   In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs, soy sauce, vinegar, minced garlic, bay leaves, black peppercorns, sugar, and water. Mix well and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Cook the Chicken

   In a large pot or deep skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken (reserve the marinade) and brown on all sides. Pour in the reserved marinade and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30-40 minutes until chicken is tender.

3. 3

   Prepare the Fried Rice

   In a separate pan, heat a little oil and add the cooked rice. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. 4

   Fry the Eggs

   In another skillet, fry the eggs sunny side up until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny.

5. 5

   Roast the Scallions

   In the same skillet used for the eggs, add chopped scallions and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly charred.

6. 6

   Serve

   On a plate, serve the garlic fried rice, topped with a fried egg, and a generous portion of chicken adobo with sauce. Garnish with roasted scallions.
