FILIPINO ADOBO (PORK OR CHICKEN) WITH SLOW COOKER VARIATION
For about 20 years this recipe was just a lovely memory. When DH was in grad school one of his professors invited the entire class and their families to enjoy a Filipino meal prepared by his wife, Priscilla. She fed about 50 of us seated on the floor in front of long rolls of paper! 20 years later, that professor is no longer at this school but my husband and his son-in-law now teach here. Rachel, Priscilla's daughter, shared her Mom's recipe with me. She has added slow cooker instructions to fit her busy lifestyle but it is still the same great flavor that her mom prepared for us over 20 years ago. Thanks Priscilla and Rachel!! **NOTES** - Cooking time 2 hours stove or 6 hours slow cooker. - Slow Cookers vary in cooking times - adjust according to your appliance. - Freezer instructions courtesy of Erindipity.

Steps:
- Note: The original recipe just called for vinegar. I use Apple Cider Vinegar - just use what you have. Some reviewers have used rice vinegar and been pleased. Rice vinegar seems to have a touch of sweetness. Do what pleases you - experiment and have fun in the kitchen.
- Stove top instructions.
- Combine all of the ingredients in a large pot. (The women who shared the recipe with me put the spices into the pot freely. Reviewer Felina suggested tying the spices into a cheesecloth to so that you get the flavor but don't bite into the peppercorns while you eat the dish - a stainless tea ball works too. Do whichever please you).
- Allow everything sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes.
- Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low; simmer for 1 1/2 - 2 hours (leave lid slightly ajar).
- Remove lid and cook 10 minutes more.
- Serve with rice.

Steps:
- In a slow cooker, combine the vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, peppercorns, garlic and bay leaves and stir to combine. Add the chicken, turning to coat evenly. Cover and cook the chicken on low until tender, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
- Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and place on a plate. Strain the cooking liquid into a small pot. Place over medium-high heat and simmer until reduced to a thick sauce. Place the chicken back in the slow cooker to stay warm while the sauce reduces.
- Spoon some rice into serving bowls. Top with the chicken and some of the sauce, then garnish with the pickled peppers and scallions.
Tips:
- To add a slightly smoky flavor to your adobo, toast the peppercorns, bay leaves, and garlic in a pan over medium heat for a few minutes before adding them to the slow cooker.
- If you don't have soy sauce, you can substitute an equal amount of tamari or coconut aminos.
- If you want a thicker sauce, whisk together a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) and add it to the slow cooker in the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Serve chicken adobo with steamed rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
Slow-cooker chicken adobo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and bay leaves gives the chicken a flavorful and slightly tangy flavor. The chicken is cooked until it is fall-off-the-bone tender, and the sauce is thick and rich. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
