Let's Eat

I am starving.

Well,

not in the sense where I can't find food to eat.

I'm just really hungry for some

Chicken Adobo!

I don't why I'm giving out the recipe to everyone today.

I never did recipes before.

But I just can't stop thinking about eating

Adobo!

Ingredients

• 1 cup white vinegar
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 whole garlic bulb, smashed and peeled
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
• 1 bay leaf
• 2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs or drumsticks
• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 1 cup water

• Combine the first six ingredients. Add chicken; refrigerate, covered, 20-30 minutes. Drain, reserving marinade. Pat chicken dry.
• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown chicken. Stir in water and reserved marinade. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until chicken is no longer pink and sauce is slightly reduced, 20-25 minutes. If desired, serve chicken with cooking sauce.

Test Kitchen Tips

To quickly peel fresh garlic, gently crush the clove with the flat side of a large knife blade to loosen the peel. If you don’t have a large knife, you can crush the garlic with a small can.

Canola oil is high in monounsaturated fat, a type that helps to decrease blood cholesterol levels, and low in saturated fat, which can increase blood cholesterol. Olive oil would also taste great in this recipe and has the same healthy-fat properties.
