Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 1 head of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 1 cup water

Instructions: How to Cook Moe'S Adobo Chicken

  1. In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar, minced garlic, black peppercorns, and bay leaves. Mix well to create the marinade.
  2. Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, making sure each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
  3. Heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use.
  4. Sear the chicken thighs in the hot skillet until browned on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  5. Pour the reserved marinade and water into the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
  6. Once the chicken is cooked, remove the lid and continue to simmer for another 5-10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
  7. Serve the Moe's Adobo Chicken hot over steamed rice, garnished with chopped green onions or cilantro. Enjoy!
