  • Pork or Chicken Adobo

    1 vote
    Adobo is the closest thing Filipinos have to a national dish. Some people like combining chicken and pork in one dish, others prefer using one or the other. Traditionally, adobo is made with vinegar. I prefer using calamansi or lime because vinegar tend to be too strong for my taste.

    Ingredients

    • 2 lb pork belly or 2 lb Chicken
    • 2 tbsp garlic, minced or crushed
    • 1 medium pc of onion sliced thinly
    • 5 pieces dried bay leaves
    • 4 -5 pcs lime or calamansi
    • 1 cup soy sauce
    • 1 tbsp whole pepper corn or course pepper
    • 1 cup of water (or 7-Up)
    • 1 pc of pork cube or chicken to taste
    • 1 pc of star anise or rosemary (optional but this give a good smell and taste as well)

    Directions

    1. 1. Combine the pork belly or chicken and all the ingredients then marinade for at least 1 hour or over night for best result.
    2. 2. Bring to boil for at least 10 minutes then simmer for 1 ½ or 2 hours make sure to check the sauce is a bit thick and not dry ( you can add 1 cup of water or 7-Up then simmer again until the sauce becomes thick).
    3. 3. Serve hot. Share and enjoy!
