Blog 05 - A delicious recipe for any occasion!

The recipe that I'm going to share with you is my grandpa's delicious recipe for chicken adobo. This amazing concoction is a favorite dish originating from the Philippines. My childhood is filled with days of coming home from school to see my grandpa preparing my favorite meal. This soy sauce flavored chicken dish is best served with steamed rice.
