Guinataan Chicken Adobo
This chicken dish deviates from the traditional adobo with the addition of coconut milk, elevating its flavor profile.
Ingredients
- 4 ½ pounds chicken leg quarters
- ¾ cup white vinegar
- ¾ cup water
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns, crushed
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- salt to taste
- 1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
Instructions
- Combine the chicken, vinegar, water, sugar, soy sauce, bay leaves, crushed peppercorns, onion, and garlic in a large pot; stir and bring the mixture to a boil for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook at a simmer for 30 minutes.
- Remove the chicken to a large serving platter and set aside. Increase the heat under the pot to medium and cook until the liquid reduces by about one-quarter, about 10 minutes. Season with salt; stir the coconut milk into the mixture. Cover and cook until the coconut milk appears oily, about 10 minutes. Pour the mixture over the chicken to serve.
