Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Instant Pot Chicken Adobo Filipino Style.
Step 1
To create a delicious and flavorful dish, start by whisking together distilled white vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, brown sugar, and cracked black peppercorns in a medium bowl.
Step 2
Keep whisking until the brown sugar is completely dissolved, then add the bay leaves and give it a gentle stir to combine all the ingredients.
Step 3
Next, line the bottom of your Instant Pot with sliced onions, creating a flavorful bed for the chicken.
Step 4
Place the chicken thighs on top of the onions and pour the vinegar mixture over them, ensuring they are well-coated.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to seal the deal! Close and lock the lid of your Instant Pot, set it to high pressure according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and set the timer for 10 minutes.
Step 6
As the chicken cooks, it will soak up all those wonderful flavors, and you’ll only need to wait about 10 minutes for the pressure to build up.
Step 7
While the chicken is cooking, prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil for easy cleanup later.
Step 8
Once the timer goes off, use the quick-release method to let the pressure out, which should take around 5 minutes.
Step 9
Carefully unlock and remove the lid, and using tongs, transfer the chicken thighs to the prepared baking sheet, placing them skin-side up.
Step 10
Now, select the Sauté function on your Instant Pot and let the sauce simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly and intensify in flavor.
Step 11
While that’s happening, preheat your oven’s broiler to high and position an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Step 12
When the sauce is ready, broil the chicken under the preheated broiler for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the skin turns crispy and golden brown, creating that irresistible texture.
Step 13
Once done, transfer the chicken to a serving plate, generously spoon the thickened sauce over the top, and finish with a sprinkle of chopped scallions for a fresh touch.
Step 14
Serve and enjoy the delightful flavors of your homemade dish!.
