Keto Filipino Adobo
Geri TerryFilipino adobo and Mexican adobo are utterly different! Here in Houston, we are familiar with Mexican style, a thick sauce made of dried chiles and spices that frequently has chipotles swimming in it. Filipino Adobo is a horse of a different color! A horse that I was completely unfamiliar with until a week ago when I realized that our beloved Shishi, Ketonia team member extraordinaire, was, in fact, from the Philippines!! Shishi enlightened me, gave me some family secrets, and a star was born. Filipino Adobo is the bomb, you guys! You gotta try this! Thanks, Shishi!
