Slow-cooker chicken adobo is a tender, juicy, and flavorful chicken recipe traditionally made with simple vinegar and soy sauce-based sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 lbs chicken thighs, boneless, skinless
- 1/2 cup white distilled vinegar
- 1/2 cup coconut aminos or soy sauce
- 6 cloves garlic, crushed or minced
- 1 tsp black peppercorns
- 2–3 bay leaves

Instructions
- Step 1: Add the vinegar, coconut aminos/soy sauce, peppercorn, brown sugar/coconut sugar, bay leaves, half the onions, and garlic to the slow cooker and mix to combine.
