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.

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

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.

Time 2h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1/2 cup cider vinegar or distilled white vinegar
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
10 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
4 bay leaves
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 2 pounds)
Steamed white rice, for serving
Pickled cherry peppers, for garnish
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

In a slow cooker, combine the vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, peppercorns, garlic and bay leaves and stir to combine. Add the chicken, turning to coat evenly. Cover and cook the chicken on low until tender, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and place on a plate. Strain the cooking liquid into a small pot. Place over medium-high heat and simmer until reduced to a thick sauce. Place the chicken back in the slow cooker to stay warm while the sauce reduces.
Spoon some rice into serving bowls. Top with the chicken and some of the sauce, then garnish with the pickled peppers and scallions.

Tips:

For a richer flavor, use chicken thighs instead of breasts. Chicken thighs are dark meat and have more flavor than breasts.
Use a good quality adobo sauce. There are many different brands of adobo sauce available, so be sure to choose one that you like the taste of.
Add some vegetables to the slow cooker. Vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions will add flavor and nutrition to the dish.
Serve the chicken with rice or noodles. Adobo chicken is a great served with rice or noodles, which will help to soak up the sauce.
Garnish the chicken with fresh cilantro before serving. Cilantro adds a fresh, citrusy flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Slow cooker adobo chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. The chicken is cooked in a flavorful adobo sauce until it is fall-off-the-bone tender. Serve the chicken with rice or noodles, and enjoy!
