Mojo Chicken Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Chicken

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Rub the whole chicken with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2

Roast the Chicken

Place the chicken in a roasting pan and pour the mojo marinade over it. Roast for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste the chicken with the pan juices every 30 minutes.

3

Prepare the Toppings

While the chicken is roasting, slice the tomato and prepare the lettuce by washing and drying the leaves.

4

Assemble the Dish

Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice the chicken and layer it with baby Swiss cheese, tomato slices, and lettuce on a serving platter. Drizzle with cilantro aioli before serving.
