Adobong manok

Adobong manok is a traditional stew originating from the Philippines. This type of Filipino adobo is made with a combination of chicken, garlic, onions, bay leaves, peppercorns, oil, brown sugar, soy sauce, and white vinegar. The chicken is cut into pieces and marinated in a mixture of all the mentioned ingredients (except oil). It is then cooked in oil over medium heat until browned. The rest of the marinade is mixed with water and the mixture is poured over the browned chicken. The dish is simmered over high heat until the chicken is fully cooked, and adobong manok is then served with white rice on the side.
