This is a popular luau offering and is a national dish of the Philippines. Let your guests know that there are peppercorns in the sauce so they can avoid biting into them. The sauce has a strong vinegar flavor that is balanced by the pepper, soy sauce, and garlic. Depending on your preference, you can use another cut of pork or even all chicken thighs.
Adobo has many regional variations and chicken and pork adobo is just one of the common interpretations of our quintessential Filipino stew. This version isn’t really much different from adobo made solely of chicken or pork but since we are combining two types of meat that has varying cooking times, I like to brown the pork (which requires longer cook time) a bit before we add the chicken to prevent one from falling apart while the other sufficiently tenderizes. Give this dish a try for dinner tonight and let me know what you think. |
