FILIPINO ADOBO (PORK OR CHICKEN) WITH SLOW COOKER VARIATION



Filipino Adobo (Pork or Chicken) With Slow Cooker Variation image

For about 20 years this recipe was just a lovely memory. When DH was in grad school one of his professors invited the entire class and their families to enjoy a Filipino meal prepared by his wife, Priscilla. She fed about 50 of us seated on the floor in front of long rolls of paper! 20 years later, that professor is no longer at this school but my husband and his son-in-law now teach here. Rachel, Priscilla's daughter, shared her Mom's recipe with me. She has added slow cooker instructions to fit her busy lifestyle but it is still the same great flavor that her mom prepared for us over 20 years ago. Thanks Priscilla and Rachel!! **NOTES** - Cooking time 2 hours stove or 6 hours slow cooker. - Slow Cookers vary in cooking times - adjust according to your appliance. - Freezer instructions courtesy of Erindipity.

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 -4 lbs pork (cut in 2-inch cubes) or 3 -4 lbs chicken (cut into serving pieces)
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 cup water
2 -3 bay leaves, crumbled
2 teaspoons peppercorns (whole)
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 medium onion, chopped
3/4 teaspoon ground pepper
2 teaspoons salt (optional, I do not put it in, it is what the original cook uses)

Steps:

  • Note: The original recipe just called for vinegar. I use Apple Cider Vinegar - just use what you have. Some reviewers have used rice vinegar and been pleased. Rice vinegar seems to have a touch of sweetness. Do what pleases you - experiment and have fun in the kitchen.
  • Stove top instructions.
  • Combine all of the ingredients in a large pot. (The women who shared the recipe with me put the spices into the pot freely. Reviewer Felina suggested tying the spices into a cheesecloth to so that you get the flavor but don't bite into the peppercorns while you eat the dish - a stainless tea ball works too. Do whichever please you).
  • Allow everything sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes.
  • Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low; simmer for 1 1/2 - 2 hours (leave lid slightly ajar).
  • Remove lid and cook 10 minutes more.
  • Serve with rice.
  • Slow Cooker instructions.
  • Combine all of the ingredients in a slow cooker. (The women who shared the recipe with me put the spices into the pot freely. Reviewer Felina suggested tying the spices into a cheesecloth to so that you get the flavor but don't bite into the peppercorns while you eat the dish - a stainless tea ball works too. Do whichever please you).
  • Allow meat to sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes.
  • Cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 6 hours until pork or chicken is done (time depends on your slow cooker).
  • Serve with rice.

FILIPINO CROCK POT ADOBO
