just for a more garlicky flavor.saute chopped garlic till golden brown.then add the meat for browning before turning it back in the caserole,it definitely adds more flavor but dont reboil or reheat,just cover it till ready to serve to preserve the toasted garlicky smell,try it folks….
Leave chicken on the bone the bone marrow also leaves lots of flavoring

yummy adobo. history here: allpinoyrecipes.info
It’s sad that most Filipinos can’t cook adobo that well. In my opinion this adobo recipe would be tasty for those who have never tasted the original adobo recipe served in Filipino homes for ages. I think this recipe is similar to the recipes in fancy restaurants, which taste like crap.
