Steps:
- In a glass container combine the marinade ingredients and mix well before adding in the chicken pieces and mixing to coat. Seal and refrigerate for at least two hours or overnight.
- Once the chicken has marinated for at least 2 hours, combine flour with sazon and adobo seasoning in a large bowl or ziplock bag and mix to combine.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy bottomed pot. Add a few pieces of chicken to the bowl/bag and toss to coat each piece with flour. Once the oil is hot, fry the chicken in batches, for about 6 minutes or once they reach an internal temperature of 165.
- Garnish with lime juice. Buen provecho!

This is my mom's recipe, and still my favorite. It's just as good at room temp as it is hot (well, almost).

Steps:
- Cut the chicken into chunks. You should get 10-16 pieces.
- Combine the soy sauce, lemon juice, rum, garlic, ginger, and bay leaf in a bowl or zipper bag, add the chicken pieces, and let marinate at least 4 hours in the refridgerator (overnight is best).
- Combine the flour, salt, and pepper, and put on a plate or waxed paper for dredging.
- In an electric fryer, or on the stove, heat the vegetable oil to 375 degrees.
- Once the oil has reached the correct temperature, dredge the chicken 4-5 pieces at a time, and fry until crisp and golden brown. The time will depend on the size of the chicken.
- As you complete each batch, remove the cooked pieces to a rack to drain, and dredge and fry the next batch.
- Serve with rice and beans. A salad is good here, too.

Steps:
- Whisk lime juice, rum, onion, and garlic together in a bowl. Place chicken strips in a shallow glass baking pan and pour marinade over top. Mix up chicken so all pieces are well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
- Beat egg and water together in a shallow bowl. Mix flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 2 teaspoons pepper together in a second shallow bowl.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- While the oil is heating, remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Dip chicken in the egg wash, then dredge in the seasoned flour mixture until well coated.
- Fry chicken in small batches (don't overcrowd the skillet) in the hot oil until all sides are golden brown and the juices run clear, 8 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
