Cuban Style Slow Cooker Mojo Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Combine orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, cilantro, garlic, orange zest, lime zest, oregano, salt, pepper, cumin, and bay leaves in a large resealable bag. Add chicken thighs, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight. Flip the bag over occasionally and rub over chicken thighs to evenly distribute marinade.
• Place chicken and marinade in a slow cooker. Cook on Low until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 4 to 5 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Place 1/2 of the chopped onion in the bottom of a slow cooker. Place chicken breasts on top and cover with remaining onion. Add black beans and diced tomatoes.
• Whisk together broth, orange juice, wine, garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper, and thyme; pour into the slow cooker.
• Cover and cook until chicken is falling apart and no longer pink in the center, on Low for 6 to 8 hours or High for 3 to 4 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Shred chicken and return meat to the pot for 5 to 10 minutes to allow it to soak up the juices. Serve over cooked rice.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine onion, garlic, bell pepper, and potatoes. Stir in tomato sauce and wine; season with cumin, sage leaf, and salt and pepper. Place chicken legs in slow cooker, and pour mixture over chicken. Cover, and cook on Low heat until juices run clear, about 6 to 8 hours.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until very hot. While the oil heats, mash the cumin, salt, oregano, and garlic together into a paste in a heat-proof bowl; whisk the hot oil into the paste. Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Add the lime juice and orange juice; stir. Place the chicken in a large sealable bag; pour the marinade over the chicken and shake to assure an even coating. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, up to overnight.
• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Arrange the marinated chicken in a roasting pan.
• Bake the chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).
