    Quite good! My husband is not a fan of vinegar, so our version of adobo usually lacks that oomph factor. I thought the lemon in this was a really great alternative. To top it off, we have three lemon trees in our yard, so ingredients are just literally within reach. I might start to cook adobo this way from now on! Thank you for sharing this! 🙂
