Cristina’s Streamlined Chicken Adobo recipe 😋
Ingredients:
- 1 kg chicken 🍗 (thighs or drumsticks)
- 1/2 cup coco aminos (as a soy sauce substitute)
- 1/3 cup white vinegar
- 6 cloves garlic 🧄 crushed
- 3 bay leaves
- 1 tsp whole peppercorns
- 1 cup water
- 4 marble potatoes 🥔 quartered
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
Instructions:
Optional Marinade Step: If you prefer, marinate the chicken in coco aminos, vinegar, and garlic for at least 30 minutes.
- In a large pan, heat oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken and brown on all sides. If you skipped the marinade, add coco aminos, vinegar, and garlic directly to the pan.
- Pour in water, add bay leaves, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil.
- Add the quartered marble potatoes.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and the sauce has reduced.
- Serve hot over steamed rice 🍚

Filipino parties are renowned for their vibrant and joyous atmosphere, deeply rooted in the country’s rich culture and traditions. These gatherings are all about family 🥰friends and food 🥘 The sense of community and togetherness is palpable, with everyone from the youngest to the oldest participating in the festivities. The hospitality is unmatched, making every guest feel like part of the family. Music, dancing, and laughter fill the air, creating an unforgettable experience.
A quintessential highlight of many Filipino parties is the lechon, a whole roasted pig 🐖 This dish is not just a culinary delight but also a symbol of abundance, prosperity, and celebration. The lechon is often the centerpiece of the feast, with its crispy skin and tender, flavorful meat drawing everyone to the table. It represents the communal effort and the joy of sharing a meal with loved ones. Whether it’s a birthday, wedding, or fiesta, the presence of lechon elevates the occasion, making it truly special.

“BER-Months” and My First Parol
In the Philippines, the “ber-months” refer to the last four months of the year: September, October, November, and December. This period is synonymous with the start of the Christmas season, making it the longest Christmas celebration in the world.The “ber-months” celebration kicks off on September 1st and extends all the way to the first week of January.The early start to the Christmas season is deeply rooted in Filipino culture and traditions. It’s a time for family reunions, with many overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) returning home to celebrate with their loved ones. The season is also marked by various activities such as Simbang Gabi, a series of nine dawn masses leading up to Christmas Day. Filipinos start decorating for Christmas as early as September. The parol, in particular, is an iconic symbol of Filipino Christmas, representing the Star of Bethlehem. I bought my very first Parol at the Dapitan Arcade almost two years ago now - here’s the video of that first time experience. 🎄✨
