Diary of a Saucy Lady: 6 Ways to Use Our No-Cook Mojo

Pungent, sour and refreshing, this simple Caribbean sauce of garlic, citrus, oil and cumin was born for hot weather cooking—and eating.

Mojo Sauce
A combination of fresh squeezed orange and lime juices will approximate the flavor of sour orange, which is traditionally used in this citrusy Cuban version of mojo sauce. If you can find a Seville orange (the most common variety of sour orange grown in the US) use that instead.

Use it:

– As a marinade for pork (chops, shoulder, tenderloin..try ’em all!)

– For a lighter version of buffalo wings, toss hot cooked chicken wings, with mojo instead of the traditional hot sauce and butter.

– As a quick pickling liquid for sliced red onions, radishes or okra.

– Brush onto white fish, like swordfish, while grilling.

– As a dipping sauce for yucca or sweet potato fries.

– Baste a whole chicken with mojo, while roasting.
