    List of Ingredients




    Four 4-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
    3 tablespoons commercial mojo marinade (see note)
    1/2 cup finely chopped onion
    1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
    1 teaspoon vegetable oil
    4 teaspoons fresh lime juice
    Lime wedges (optional)

    Recipe



    Combine chicken and mojo in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal and marinade in refrigerator 2 hours, turning occasionally.

    Combine onion and parsley in a small bowl.

    Remove chicken from bag; pat dry. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done. Drizzle each breast with 1 teaspoon lime juice; top each serving with 2 tablespoons onion mixture. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.

    Serves four.

    Cook's note: Mojo is a citrus-based sauce associated with Cuban cuisine, but variations are found throughout South America and the Caribbean. Mojo can also include herbs, garlic, onions, salt, cumin, red pepper and olive oil. A mojo marinade is a thicker form, typically made with grapefruit and orange juices and vinegar. Goya is among makers of commercial mojo marinades.
