Steps:
- Marinate the chicken with salt, the citrus juice and the mashed garlic for several hours. Drain it but reserve the marinade and then sautée the chicken to golden in the oil or lard. Add the white dry wine, bay leaf, onion, pepper and the left over marinade.
- Cook at a lower temperature, turning over often to make sure all of the chicken cooks evenly, until done (Sonia's note: chicken will be done when no pink juices flow when pricked with a fork - but don't check too often or all juices will run out and leave meat too dry).
- For easier cooking and serving, you can cut chicken up in pieces.
- before marinating. You can add peeled and diced potatoes if you wish.

POLLO ASADO
This is my family's recipe for grilled chicken, mexican-style. It is very similar to what you would get at El Pollo Loco fast food restaurants - although we were eating this way before they ever existed! Achiote powder should be available in most grocery stores' mexican spice section, but is easily found at mexican grocers or online. It imparts a subtle flavor that is definitely hispanic, and it also gives the chicken it's wonderful golden color. Prep time does not include marinating time. To cut calories, use skinless chicken, but it doesn't taste as good!

POLLO ASADA AL AJILLO: GARLIC ROASTED CHICKEN
Here's a great way to roast a chicken. The key is to give your chicken a split personality. A meat cleaver usually does the trick. Just split the chicken right down the middle of the backbone and through the breast. This is a very good chicken; it is always moist and very flavorful. If you don't like garlic, you had better stay away from this one. Hey, if you don't like garlic, you had better stay away from Cuban food!

Steps:
- Place the onion, half of the garlic/salt mixture, wine, olive oil, and vinegar in a blender and chop thoroughly. Pour marinade over the chicken and refrigerate, covered, for 2 to 4 hours. Drain marinade from chicken and pat chicken dry with a paper towel.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Rub the chicken halves on both sides with the rest of the mashed garlic/salt mixture. If you can get some of this underneath the skin without ripping, great. Sprinkle the chicken with lime juice and then black pepper and cumin on both sides. Dust chicken lightly with flour and brown chicken quickly on both sides with olive oil in a saute pan.
- Place chicken halves in a roasting pan, skin side up. Roast 30 to 45 minutes, or until juices run clear. Use a meat thermometer if you need to, or if your "significant other" gave you one for Christmas.
