Mojo Criollo marinade is a traditional Latino Creole Sauce that works well with chicken, pork, or any white fish. Due to the high acidity of the Naranja Agria, be careful not to over-marinade. 1 hour to 6 hours marination time should be sufficient for any meat. This recipe makes about 1 Cup of Mojo Criollo
Ingredients:
==========
1/2 Cup Bitter Orange (Naranja Agria) Juice or Orange Juice
2 Limes, juiced (1/4 Cup or 2 fluid ounces)
1/4 Cup Soy Sauce
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
6 Garlic Cloves, finely minced
3 Bay Leaves
1 Teaspoon Liquid Smoke (optional)
Directions:
=========
In a small bowl, add all of the ingredients and mix well.
The ingredients will tend to settle, so whisk together again before using.
Store refrigerated up to 3 weeks.
