Delicious, complex flavors. The pork was well spiced and the mojo punched the flavors up. Next time I will make twice the mojo as it was also wonderful on my vegatables. Pico de Gallo might also be good with these.I've cooked/tasted this recipe!

December 7, 2014Thanks much for your comment, Julia. Gotta admit --- I can't get enough mojo!
Glad you and friends enjoy the dish.
Best regards,
Pam- December 7, 2014I have made this several times. Tonight I made for friends and everyone wants the recipe. Make extra Mojo.
