  I see some people are objecting to the high sodium -- if you substitute Bragg's Liquid Aminos for the soy sauce, the sodium content is much less. - 7/16/12

  Do you marinate the chicken in the sauce mixture before cooking? If so, for how long? Or, do you just cook it in the sauce? Thanks! - 2/2/10

  you can do this if you'd like. I usually marinate it for at least an hour in the fridge inside of a plastic bag. Then I cook it in the sauce I made for the marinade. Hope that helps!

  This came out very good! I was skeptical about the ginger, but it added a nice touch. My boyfriend was ecstatic; it reminded him of his dad who lives across the country. - 6/17/10

  Just to let you know, in an original chicken adobo, there are no onions in the recipe. - 4/8/10

  I looked into the sodium content, and unfortunately this is just a high sodium dish (even with low sodium soy sauce). Each tablespoon of the soy sauce has around 575mg of sodium, and the recipe requires 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons). You could try to use less soy sauce, but I'm not sure how it will taste

  This is soooo good! Easy to make and delicious - way better than my friend's Adobo that had legs and wings and bits and pieces I couldn't identify, lol! Thanks so much for sharing! - 10/18/09

  I would love to try this. Sounds wonderful but would never allow myself to have 2,203.7 mg of sodium in one serving of chicken. - 6/9/19

  I have a question, on your recipes like this one do you know how I would make it in a slow cooker?? Thanks for your feedback!! :) - 1/4/18

  Excellent! I wouldn't worry about the high sodium rating -- the nutrition info includes ALL the soy sauce in the recipe -- but the broth is too strongly flavored to eat much of. The chicken cooked in the broth would have much less sodium. - 6/9/12

  I was blown away by how delicious this simple recipe was! I steamed some zucchini and carrots with it and served it over organic basmati rice....so awesome! - 8/8/11

  I'll try Bragg's Amino Acids to cut the sodium to 1920 mg, which is still high, but better than 2203mg. (recipe calls for 1/4 cup of soy sauce, brags has 160mg sodium per 1/2tsp, meaning we would need 12tsps equaling 1920mg of sodium.) Bragg's taste is stronger, to me, might be possible to use less. - 2/5/11

  Have you ever tried this in the crockpot? Then it could be served over rice (if I weren't on hcg, I mean!). - 11/17/10

  Incredible!
  
  Simple and amazing! I omitted the bay leaf and ginger ( didn't have them) and when chicken was done I threw some brussel sprouts into the sauce and steamed for a few mins. Paired with garlic rice and WOW!!! :) Fast and great! - 5/27/10
