INSTANT POT CUBAN CHICKEN
I love the flavors of Cuban food. Lots of citrus, garlic, cilantro and spices; I could eat it every day. I found I could create that slow-cooked flavor using my Instant Pot and my family is now eating Cuban food a lot more. -Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

Steps:
- Toast the cumin seeds in a dry skillet over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Place the cumin seeds, garlic, chile pepper, salt, olive oil, orange juice, and lemon juice into the bowl of a blender; grind to a coarse paste. Toss the chicken with the marinade, then place into the refrigerator, and allow to marinate for about 2 1/2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until browned. Place into the oven, and cook until the juices run clear, about 8 minutes. When the chicken is done, remove, cover with foil, and allow to rest for 3 to 5 minutes.
- While the chicken is in the oven, whisk together the olive oil, orange juice, lime zest, honey, and soy sauce in a skillet over medium-high heat. Simmer until the orange juice has reduced to 1/3 of original volume and is beginning to get thick and syrupy. Once thick, remove from heat, and whisk in the butter pieces one at a time until melted; set aside.
- To serve, place chicken on the plate and sprinkle with mango and avocado. Drizzle with the sauce, and garnish with cilantro and parsley.

CUBAN CHICKEN
An unusual combination of ingredients. Yummy! Serve over rice. You can put rice into the pot to cook with everything else, but add 2 cups chicken broth and simmer 20 minutes until the rice is done. One fewer pot to wash!

KIRSTEN'S CUBAN CHICKEN AND RICE
I am half Cuban, and I remember my grandmother making this dish for us every time she came to visit. I have scoured the internet for different recipes, finally settling on this one that I have made my own. It is a spicier, warm-your-soul version that is full of flavor and a hit every time I make it!

Steps:
- Season both sides of the chicken pieces in salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a wide nonstick pot over medium heat. Add chicken, and brown for 8 to 10 minutes per side, working in batches if necessary. Remove to a plate.
- Add onion and saute until it just starts to turn brown, about 7 minutes. Add sazon, sofrito, garlic, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, thyme, adobo, turmeric, and cayenne pepper; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add rice and stir until all grains are coated with oil and spices. Return the chicken to the pan, then add chicken broth, chiles, and olives. Stir and bring to a boil.
- Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and reduce heat to low. Cook, without lifting the lid, until all liquid is absorbed, rice is tender, and chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

CUBAN-SPICED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CHORIZO AND RICE
Steps:
- Whisk first 11 ingredients in medium bowl for marinade. Place chicken in large resealable plastic bag; add marinade. Seal bag; turn several times to coat chicken. Refrigerate chicken at least 4 hours and up to 1 day, turning bag occasionally. Using tongs, transfer chicken from bag to plate, allowing excess marinade to drip back into bag. Reserve marinade.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large wide pot over medium heat. Add chorizo and sauté until beginning to brown and fat begins to render, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer chorizo to medium bowl. Increase heat to medium-high. Add half of chicken, skin side down, to pot. Sauté until brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to plate. Repeat with remaining chicken.
- Pour off all but 3 tablespoons fat from pot; discard excess fat. Add chopped onions; sauté 4 minutes, scraping up any browned bits. Add chopped bell pepper and chopped garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent, about 2 minutes. Mix in rice, stirring to blend with vegetables. Add 2 1/2 cups broth, tomatoes with any juice, paprika, saffron, and reserved marinade. Bring to boil, stirring to blend. Return chicken, chorizo, and any accumulated juices to pot, pressing chicken partially into rice.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15 minutes. Arrange piquillo pepper strips over chicken pieces. Cover and continue to simmer until rice is tender and chicken is cooked through, adding more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if rice is dry, about 10 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Transfer rice and chicken to large shallow bowl. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges and serve.
SPICY CUBAN CHICKEN
I got this from a friend at church; I haven't made it yet, but she brought it to a potluck and it was so yummy I had to ask for the recipe. It is credited to The Bean Education & Awareness Network. Prep time includes marinating time. ****update**** I messed up the marinating once I finally made this and left out the garlic and red pepper in the marinade. Instead I put the garlic in while sauteing the chicken and put in the red pepper with all the other spices. This made it pretty spicy, but good!
