Sister of Mercy Chicken – Chicken Adobo

(Adobo – Spanish for marinade; the word extends to the method of preparing meat or seafood in a marinade and to the dish itself; the Mexican version is hot with chilies, the Philippine pungent with vinegar.)

 

Cut up a whole chicken into several small parts – the smaller they are the faster they will cook.  Soak chicken in white vinegar 1 to 2 hours. Remove from vinegar but do not pat dry. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.  In a hot dry skillet add chicken parts. Cover the chicken and allow it to steam, about 5 minutes on each side.  When each side is brown add about ¼ cup of oil to the pan and continue to cook until chicken is no longer pink inside.

Serve with rice and vegetables.
