Unlike the usual taste of adobo which is salty, tangy and garlicky, this version of chicken adobo has a slightly fruity sweet taste because of the pineapple tidbits and tomatoes added. But even though this is a tasty version of chicken adobo, some people who love adobo don’t like the sweet taste and they prefer the traditional salty and garlicky version.
This adobo is very easy to cook very much like the traditional adobo where you only put everything in a pot and let it simmer until the chicken is cooked. Great to serve with steamed rice for your lunch or dinner.
