The Goods: Cuban Mojito Simmer Sauce

I'm always torn about how much Trader Joe's I should feature on the blog... first of all, they're not paying me. ;) Seriously, though... I love their stuff, but I know some of you out there don't have access. So, if you don't, just ignore my post today. ;)


I was going to feature Cuban Mojito Simmer Sauce next week, but Kelly made such a glowing review of it (and also reaffirmed I SHOULD tell you about TJ's stuff), I figured I would go ahead and feature it now! This week I had Cuban Mojito Chicken on the menu. This sauce is a savory yet citrus-y (how's that for grammar?) sauce that isn't very thick. I usually cook a pound of chicken on the stove then simmer in the sauce, serve over rice w/a side of black beans and a veggie. It is scrumptious. I haven't done this yet, but I think it would also make an awesome marinade. Anyway, when you get a chance, try it out!

I know already commented... you are probably sick of me. /but wanted t let you know I did use as a marinade, and was great. I marinated the chicken all day, reserving some sauce for my rice etc. and everyone loved it, even my 2 year old. Thanks again.
