Filipino Chicken Adobo image

My mom is from the Philippines so I grew up eating Filipino food. She makes Adobo by memory and has no specific measurements, so this is the closest I could get to creating her recipe. Of course, every family has their own variation to this classic Filipino dish. My mom adds brown sugar to offset the saltiness from the soy sauce. Any type of meat can be used, but chicken has always been my favorite.
