Delicioso Adobo Recipes

FAMOUS CHICKEN ADOBO

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken pieces until golden brown on both sides, then remove. Stir in the onion and garlic; cook until they soften and brown, about 6 minutes.
• Pour in vinegar and soy sauce, and season with garlic powder, black pepper, and bay leaf. Add the browned chicken, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken is tender and cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes.

ARROZ CON POLLO

Steps:

• Place the chicken, quartered onions, 1 cup of chicken broth, beer, Delicioso Adobo, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 of the cilantro, and garlic in a large pot or skillet over high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside to cool; once cool shred and set aside. Strain the broth into a bowl through a fine-mesh sieve discarding the onion pieces.
• Pour the broth into a measuring cup and add water to make 4 cups of liquid. Return it to the pot or skillet and add the rice, peas, carrots, green beans, ketchup, and salt. Stir well and bring to a boil. Let the liquid evaporate to just below the level of the rice, about 10 minutes, and then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the rice is tender and fully cooked, 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the peppers and the remaining sliced onions and cook until they're tender, 8 minutes. Shred the cooked chicken meat discarding the skin and bones, and add the chicken to the vegetables. Cook until it is heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and add the chicken and vegetables to the rice mixture. Stir in the olives, sprinkle with the remaining cilantro and serve.

ADOBO ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees and line a medium rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment.
• Prepare the adobo seasoning: In a small bowl, combine 1½ teaspoons salt with the garlic powder, oregano, turmeric and pepper, and mix well with a fork.
• Put potatoes in a large bowl and randomly poke a few small holes in each with a fork. Pour in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and toss potatoes well, then sprinkle with the adobo seasoning, and stir to combine. Pour in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss a bit more to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with spices.
• Transfer potatoes to the lined baking sheet in an even layer, being careful not to crowd the pan.
• Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, shaking the pan every 10 minutes or so. Potatoes are done when they pierce easily with a fork or the tip of a sharp knife. Taste and add more salt, if desired.
