This streamlined version of a Filipino comfort favorite is speedy in your Instant Pot® multi-cooker, and there's only one pot to clean. Adobo in the Philippines has its origins in the Malay practice of preserving meat in vinegar and/or salt and differs from the Mexican sauce or Caribbean seasoning known by the same name. The soy sauce in Filipino adobo reflects Chinese influences and largely replaces salt in the dish. Mixed with vinegar and aromatics, it makes a deliciously savory base for the dish and an excellent sauce for the rice that accompanies it.
