INGREDIENTS

2 tablespoons garlic, chopped

1⁄4 cup onion, chopped

1 cup fresh orange juice

1⁄4 cup fresh lime juice

1 small chipotle pepper, chopped (optional)

1⁄4 cup olive oil

2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 1⁄2 teaspoons black pepper

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 1⁄2 teaspoons fresh cilantro, chopped

DIRECTIONS

Mix together the garlic, onions, orange juice, and lime juice in a bowl.

Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan til just hot

CAUTION: slide the contents of the bowl into the hot oil — be very careful because the liquid could splatter. You might want to use oven mits.

Simmer for 5 minutes to soften the onions and garlic. Season the marinade with the rest of the ingredients.

CAUTION: Pour everything into a blender (remove lid for hot air to release) or food processor and pulse 3 times to blend (another alternative is to use an immersion blender). Whichever method you use, just use caution with the hot liquids.

Pour into a glass container and cool to room temperature; cover and refrigerate.

Mojito Marinade keeps for up to 2 weeks.

Ingredients for the rub

Olive oil spray and oil

½ tablespoon of any salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon onion powder

1 tablespoon paprika regular and smoked(I use both)

1 teaspoon dried sage

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon chili powder(for spice, you can omit)

To use:

I use chicken(any parts you want) or a nice pork loin, ribs work well and turn out so delicious

I rub everything down lightly with olive oil, then rub all over with the spice mixture and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes prior to cooking or up to a day before. When ready to cook I like to take out the chicken or meats and leave it warm up a bit, 15 minutes is good before cooking.

I cooked the chicken in an air fryer(our stove has this feature, it's the best ever) Then cook chicken until it reaches 160 degrees. or until your preference for done.

A roast or ribs I cook until it reaches at least 145 degrees.

It will need to rest 10-15 minutes before cutting and serving.

One Pot Goulash

3 cloves garlic (finely minced)

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

Instructions

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and green pepper and cook until softened, about 2-3 minutes.

 Ingredients

Olive oil spray and oil

½ tablespoon of any other salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon paprika regular or smoked

1 teaspoon dried sage

1 teaspoon dried thyme

3 pounds pork shoulder roast boneless

How to make it:

Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and fit it with a wire rack. Spray the wire rack with olive oil.

In a small bowl, mix the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, sage, and thyme. 

Pat the pork dry with paper towels. Place it on the wire rack. Rub the spice mixture all over the roast. Spray its top liberally with olive oil.

Heat the oven to 425°F. Let the roast sit at room temperature while the oven is warming, about 30 minutes. 

Insert a meat thermometer probe into the middle of the pork roast and place it in the hot oven. Roast it for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 375°F and continue roasting until the meat thermometer reads 145°F. In my oven, it takes 75 minutes (about 25 minutes per pound). 

Remove the roast from the oven. Loosely tent it with foil and allow it to rest for 20 minutes. Carefully remove the butcher twine from the roast, slice, and serve. 

HERBED PRIME RIB

INGREDIENTS

2 tablespoons McCormick® Basil Leaves

2 tablespoons McCormick® Oregano Leaves

1 tablespoon McCormick® Garlic Powder

2 teaspoons McCormick® Onion Powder

1 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Ground Black Pepper

1 boneless beef rib roast, 5 to 6 pounds

2 tablespoons oil

1 teaspoon sea salt

INSTRUCTIONS

 Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix first 5 ingredients in small bowl. Set aside. Trim excess fat from top of beef, leaving a layer of fat about 1/4-inch thick. Place roast on rack in shallow roasting pan. Brush beef with oil. Sprinkle with salt. Coat with seasoning mixture.

Roast, uncovered, until internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium-rare (1 3/4 to 2 1/4 hours) or 140°F for medium (2 1/4 to 2 3/4 hours). Cover with foil and let stand 15 minutes before carving. (The temperature of the meat will rise about 10 degrees during standing.)

These herbs bring out the flavor of the meat

Looks so delicious you just can't wait to eat.

Cooked to perfection, just how we like it. Enjoy with your favorite sides, we had homemade mashed potatoes and mushroom brown gravy. YUM!
