Filipino Adobo

 A basic Philippine adobo usually has chicken and/or pork marinated in vinegar, black pepper, garlic and bay leaf and then cooked in oil.  Soy sauce is often used as an ingredient as well but its addition to the basic adobo recipe is a relatively recent development.

While chicken and pork adobo recipes are the most common, the use of other main ingredients argues for adobo to be more accurately described as a method of cooking than a dish per se.  

The dish and its method of preparation are believed to be indigenous to the Philippines but the term adobo is of Spanish origin, a legacy from the time the islands were ruled by Spain. In Spanish cuisine the term adoborefers to a pickling sauce consisting of olive oil, wine vinegar and spices; in Mexican cuisine it describes a paste of chilies, spices, herbs and vinegar. Spanish and Mexican dishes using these seasonings are described as adobado or adobada. While bearing some similarities, the Filipino dish is distinct.
