A Filipino pork belly adobo recipe that’s sure to please. The meat is marinated in a soy sauce and vinegar mix with plenty of garlic then slow cooked. Although it’s not a very popular recipe on this site, my Filipino chicken adobo is my family’s favorite dish.
It's simply chicken that's been marinated in a seasoning sauce. The name comes from the Spanish word "adobar" which means "marinate" in English. And it's often referred to as the National Dish of the Philippines. Although chicken is a popular meat to use in the marinated dish, Filipinos often use pork and seafood too.

Chicken adobo is by far my family's favorite low carb chicken recipes! And it's a dish I've been making for over 20 years.
Adobo dishes always taste better when eaten the next day. This goes well with a low carb “rice” or low carb buns. You can marinate for at least 2 hours, but marinating for at least 5 hours or overnight makes this dish more flavorful.
