Item Rating: 63/100Add to Meal Plan

Adobo is a savory Filipino dish celebrated for its rich, tangy flavor profile. Traditionally crafted with meat, usually chicken or pork, it's marinated in a mixture of vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, and spices, then braised to perfection. This beloved staple reflects the influences of Spanish and indigenous Filipino cuisine, showcasing a unique balance of sweet, salty, and sour flavors. Although it can be higher in sodium due to the soy sauce, the dish is packed with protein and can be made healthier by incorporating vegetables and choosing leaner cuts of meat. Adobo is more than just food; it’s a comforting symbol of Filipino culture enjoyed in homes around the world.
