Sweet Chicken Asado Recipe
Just like my favorite chicken adobo, I always enjoy eating Sweet Chicken Asado for either lunch or dinner -- I don't even mind having the leftovers the next day for breakfast. This Sweet Chicken Asado was inspired by the pork asado recipe that I published back then when I was starting this food blog.
