About Cuban mojo roasted chicken

Cuban Mojo Roasted Chicken is a flavorful dish rooted in Cuban cuisine, celebrated for its vibrant citrus-garlic marinade. The chicken is marinated in a mixture of orange juice, lime juice, garlic, olive oil, and a blend of spices like oregano and cumin, delivering a zesty and aromatic taste. It's then oven-roasted or grilled to perfection, resulting in juicy meat with a golden, crispy skin. Packed with protein, this dish is a wholesome option when paired with fresh vegetables or whole grains. Olive oil and citrus juices provide heart-healthy fats and vitamin C, while garlic adds antioxidants. However, the dish may be higher in sodium depending on the seasoning levels, so moderating salt intake or using lower-sodium options can make it even healthier. Cuban Mojo Roasted Chicken is a deliciously balanced way to enjoy bold flavors without compromising on nutrition.
