Cuban Mojo Pork Loin

Cuban-Mojo

    I was looking for a new delicious pork loin recipe and decided to give this traditional Cuban dish a try. The citrus flavor combined with some heat and warmth is amazing. Mojo is traditional for the Cuban culture and much different from other versions of Mojo. This was so easy and easy to make in the crock pot that I highly recommend this for anyone wanting a good, tender, juicy pork loin dinner for their family. Cuban Mojo Pork Loin

Ingredients:

  • 1/2-1 lb pork tenderloin
  • Vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • Zest from both orange and lime
  • Cornstarch slurry
  • Salt/pepper
  • Fresh parsley


1. Rub pork loin with salt and pepper. In a large skillet with some vegetable oil drizzled sear the loin on all sides until lightly browned.

2. In crock pot pour in the orange juice, lime juice, cumin, oregano, red pepper flakes, garlic and zest from the fruit. Place the loin in and toss around. Cover and cook for roughly 8 hours on low.

3. Serve over rice with some fresh parsley.
