Step-by-Step Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm the vegetable oil. Sauté the chicken pieces until they're a tantalizing golden brown on both sides, taking 2 to 3 minutes per side. Once done, transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside, making way for the rest of the adobo creation.
  • Add the onion and garlic to the skillet, letting them become tender and delicately browned over 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Pour in the soy sauce and vinegar. Season your concoction with garlic powder, black pepper, and a bay leaf for added depth.
  • Restore the chicken to the pan, increase the heat to high, and bring everything to a rolling boil. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover up, and let the chicken simmer gently, unveiling its tenderness over 35 to 40 minutes.
