I've had adobo before but this isn't the one... however, this version is delicious and has the halls of my apartment complex smelling oh-so-good and full of drooling tenants. Not bad, and it's for sure a keeper.

delicious! i'm filipina and this is head on. sadly i never learned how to cook filipino food...just wasn't interested in learning when i was young..and i regret it now..so now i can only rely on recipes from books or online since my mom never measures. and tried this and this was so tasty and tasted like real adobo. my daughter loved it. i had to note...i used cane vinegar which is what we normally use for this..it's what my mom uses. you can find it at asian markets or mainly at a filipino store. it's called "Datu Puti" and it's so much better than regular white vinegar u get at a super market. makes a whole lotta difference.

Excellent recipe! Great flavor, easy to make. Next time I'm going to try cutting the salt in half, as it was too salty for me. Other than that, it was perfect. Thank you for this recipe.
