Does this have a vinegar-smell or taste to the finish? Husband hates the smell of vinegar.
Hmmm. I’m tangy, but I’m not sure if I’d describe it as “vinegar-y” or not. Next time I make it, I’ll pay extra attention. In the meantime, you could substitute lime juice or maybe even white wine (I’m not familiar with cooking with alcohol, but a quick google search recommended it as a good substitute).
I love white wine vinegar
Yum… lime would be a delicious substitute!
I made this in the pressure cooker with bone-in leg quarters. Turned out delicious!
Hi! Thus looks delicious , but I’m thinking the nutrition doesn’t match the recipe? There’s really no ingredient that has many carbs.
Thanks!
I made this yesterday In my slow cooker. It came out very good. It had lots of flavor. I used boneless, skinless chicken thigh and I used apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar. I will definitely made it again.
I made this tonight- first recipe since purchasing access last night!! I wasn’t sure, because my hubby is not a fan of anything overly vinegary.
We all three LOVED it. My 6 yr old son gave it two thumbs up and went for four helpings (small portions each time!) and declared that it was a make again recipe!
I made it exactly as directed, except for I didn’t prep it and freeze it first. Found the recipe at 4:30 after work and by 6:00 dinner was on the table (from frozen chicken) using the instant pot.
Thank you for making dinner time easier!!

How long to cook in Instant Pot if not frozen?
Can you substitute the soy sauce? My son has an allergy to it…thank you! 🙂
Adobo is a classic Filipino dish… I’m definitely going to try this recipe out!
Great! Please let us know what you think!
I think the carbs should be 3.1, not 31.
I wonder if you could make this with pork loin?
Hi, Jacquie. Traditionally in the Philippines, adobo can be pork or chicken, so it should work.
