This is what you can call the Philippine’s national dish. It so good to eat especially in cold weather. My mom taught me this after I got married.I have been thinking of eating this for a couple of days already…I’ll make it tomorrow. And to those who are having some cravings as well, i thought i’d share you the recipe.

CHICKEN ADOBO
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups unseasonsed rice or sugar cane vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 cup coconut milk
12 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
3 bay leaves
1/2 tablespoon whole black peppercorns, crushed
One whole chicken, cut into 6 serving pieces

Steamed jasmine rice, for serving

Directions
In a medium bowl, combine vinegar, soy sauce, coconut milk, garlic, bay leaves, chiles, and peppercorns. Add chicken; marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Arrange chicken in a clay pot or Dutch-oven. Pour marinade over chicken, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
Preheat broiler. Remove chicken from pot, and place on a baking sheet or broiler pan. Place under broiler until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, continue to cook the remaining liquid in the pot until it reaches a creamy consistency. Transfer chicken to a serving platter, and top with reduced sauce.

Hmmm cant wait!
