CHICKEN ADOBO

-Filipino chicken with garlic
Adobo is the national dish of the Philippines. Most warm-weather countries have through the centuries developed recipes that preserve food while flavoring it. This dish is different than many because of its strong component of vinegar. It is at once sour, salty, and drenched in garlic.

Ingredients:
* 1/2 c. vinegar
* salt
* 1 to 2 bay leaves
* 3 to 4 lb. chicken
* 6-10 cloves crushed garlic
* 1/4 c. soy sauces
* 1 tsp. crushed peppercorns
* 1 c. diced pineapple

Instructions

1. Cut chicken into 3- to 4-inch pieces.
2. Combine chicken, garlic, peppercorns, bay leaves, vinegar, soy sauce and 1/2 c. water in a large pot.
3. Heat until boiling and stir frequently.
4. Turn heat to medium and let simmer for about 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.
4.a. 3. When the chicken looks cooked and tender, you may add pineapple chunks and simmer for about a minute.
5. Adjust flavor by adding more soy sauce or vinegar.
6. Serve with steamed rice.

Ahhhh, no. This cat weighed 80 lbs. The only good cat is a dead cat.

This morning it was fry pan biscuits and gravy.

Regular store biscuits in a pop open roll. Lay them out on a cookie sheet or plate and let set for about 2 hours. Then throw them in bacon grease about 1/2 inch deep in a pan. Cook about 3 minutes and flip them over for about 3 minutes.

Hamburger, chopped bacon, chopped onion in a pan and brown. Throw in some flour, salt and pepper. Add milk slowly until you get the amount of gravy you want.

Pour over bisquits. Easy and quick, except for the biscuits setting on the counter. I put the biscuits out, then go feed horses. Come in and shower, and then cook breakfast. Works for me.

Also, I put salsa on it.

By the way. I don't use sausage because it's too expensive these days.
