Creamy Sweet Chicken Adobo
INGREDIENTS
½ kilo chicken thighs and drumsticks
salt to taste
½ tbsp black peppercorns
4 tbsp atsuete oil
6 pcs garlic cloves, smashed and minced
1 pc large red onion, minced
1 cup fried saba, cut into thick wedges
¾ cup banana blossoms
1½ cup cups chicken broth
2 pcs bay leaf
¼ cup vinegar
1/3 cup soy sauce
2/3 cup ANGEL KREMDENSADA
PROCEDURE
- Prepare chicken. Season chicken lightly with salt and leave for about 5 –10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
- Render. In a non-stick pan over medium heat, fry the chicken pieces in the atsuete oil until lightly golden and the skin has rendered most of its fat.
- To the same pan, add the garlic and onions then sauté in the chicken fats for a few minutes until aromatic and tender.
- Add the chicken broth, bay leaf, peppercorns, and the vinegar and bring to a boil. Simmer until the acidic smell has disappeared. Continue simmering uncovered until the chicken is tender and the liquid has reduced by half.
- Add the soy sauce, banana blossoms, fried saba wedges, and ANGEL’S KREMDENSADA and mix well. Continue simmering until the sauce slightly thickens but is still saucy and becomes creamy. Serve
