Chicken Adobo - Steamy Kitchen - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs skin-on chicken legs with thigh
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup water

Preparation

In a large pot or dutch oven, combine all of the ingredients and marinate the chicken for 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
Place the pot over high heat and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
Using tongs, remove chicken from pot and place on a dish. Keep the adobo sauce on the stove and increase heat to high. Boil sauce for 5 minutes to reduce and thicken.
Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels, then place skin-side up on a sheet pan. Place the sheet pan under the broiler and broil chicken for 2-3 minutes until skin is brown and crisp.
After chicken has browned, pour adobo sauce over chicken and serve over white rice.
