Want to add a little flavor to your weeknight dinner, Cuban fried chicken is a great option. The sour orange marinade gives the chicken a delicious and unique flavor.

2-5 hrs
2-5 hrs
ingredients
5 cloves garlic, peeled and pressed in a garlic press (or smashed with the side of a knife)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 cup sour orange juice (or half sweet orange juice and half lime juice)
2 whole chickens, cut up, skin on or off
1/2 large onion, sliced
1/2 cup oil to fry
directions
Combine the pressed garlic with salt, pepper, oregano, and cumin in a bowl. Mix well then slowly stir in the orange juice.
Place the chicken pieces in a glass dish. Top with the sliced onions. Pour the orange mixture evenly over the chicken. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 4 hours or as long as overnight.
When ready to cook the chicken, drain and discard the marinade. Wipe the chicken dry with paper toweling.
Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Brown the chicken in the oil, about 20 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through.
Serve the Cuban fried chicken hot.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
