How to Make Adobo Chicken With Ginger

  1. In a large Dutch oven, combine 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup white vinegar, 4 cloves minced garlic, 1 inch ginger (minced), 2 bay leaves, and 1 tsp black peppercorns.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, basting the chicken occasionally.
  4. After 30 minutes, remove the lid and continue to simmer until the sauce has reduced by half and the chicken is cooked through (about 15-20 minutes).
  5. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside on a serving plate.
  6. Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve to remove solids, reserving the liquid.
  7. Serve the chicken hot over steamed rice, generously drizzled with the reserved sauce. Garnish with chopped green onions (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
