Antidote to Worry: Easy Dinners of Adobo Chicken (and Sharing)

adobo chicken

As easy dinners go, this is the easiest. All you really need is 4 ingredients. My daughter Sabrina says bay leaves are crucial. I disagree.

Ingredients

• 4-5 lbs. chicken thighs
• 1/2 cup white vinegar
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 4 cloves garlic, crushed or otherwise
• 3 bay leaves

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a large pot. Bring to boil, and then lower heat. Cover and let simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover and simmer until sauce is reduced and thickened, and chicken is tender, about 20 more minutes. Serve with steamed rice.

Tip: This is not as good when you use white meat chicken.
