Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup white vinegar
- 0.25 cup water
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 6 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 leaves bay leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 medium potatoes, diced into 1-inch cubes
- 2 medium carrots, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 sheets foil sheets (heavy-duty)
Instructions
Preheat your oven or grill to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, white vinegar, water, brown sugar, minced garlic, bay leaves, and ground black pepper. This mixture will serve as the adobo marinade.
Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, making sure they are fully coated. Set aside to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
In another bowl, toss the diced potatoes, carrots, and sliced onion with olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Cut four large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil, making sure they are big enough to wrap the chicken and vegetables.
On each piece of foil, place a portion of the marinated chicken thighs and spoon some of the marinade over the chicken. Then, arrange a portion of the seasoned vegetables around the chicken.
Fold the foil over the chicken and vegetables to form a sealed packet, making sure all the edges are tightly crimped to lock in the flavors.
Place the foil packets on a baking sheet if cooking in the oven, or directly on the grill grates if using a grill.
Bake or grill the foil packets for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and the vegetables are tender.
Carefully open the foil packets (watch out for the steam!) and serve hot. Enjoy your Hobo Adobo Foil Dinner!
