Ingredients & Variations
CHICKEN This recipe can be made with chicken thighs, legs, or breasts, but for the most tender results, chicken thighs and drumsticks are the best choices! Thighs and drumsticks are less expensive, and leaving the skin on adds extra flavor! ADOBO SAUCE For a classic chicken adobo recipe, you will want to use the spices listed in the recipe below. Want some heat? Kick the heat up a notch with the addition of chipotle chiles. Don’t have cane vinegar? Opt for cider vinegar! While the flavor will change it is the best alternative to traditional cane vinegar. Out of soy sauce? Swap it for a dark soy sauce, it will increase the saltiness of this recipe though. Silver Swan soy sauce is a traditional soy sauce that can be used in this dish. It is slightly sweeter than a traditional soy sauce.
How to Make Chicken Adobo
