Filipino chicken adobo in the microwave is an unexpectedly quick meal that packs a flavorful punch. Made with soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and whole peppercorns, this dish is savory, tangy, and slightly sweet all at once.

We have to thank for this one-dish chicken adobo recipe. Here’s what she has to say about it: “The chicken turned out juicy and tender. And yes, it tastes authentic! I obviously didn’t eat it all, but Filipino Adobo gets better after a day or two. I could just keep it in the same bowl with lid, and same for the rice.”
