Pineapple Pork Adobo Recipe | Bon Appétit

A popular and beloved Filipino dish, adobo is commonly made from chicken or pork, traditionally braised in vinegar, soy, and garlic. There are many variations on the recipe based on each chef’s individual style and taste preferences. Some add coconut milk, others add spices, others add salt instead of soy sauce. I even tried a version that is fried. However, the most standout feature of this dish is a rich sauce that perfectly balances acidity, saltiness and sweetness. In this version I have included pureed and caramelized pineapples, inspired by my childhood trips to Tagaytay, a city south of Manila where the air is cool and there are plenty of sweet smelling fields of this tropical fruit. It’s a festive way to spice up Adobo and still keep it simple enough for a weekday meal.
