POLLO RANCHO LUNA



Pollo Rancho Luna image

There is an outdoor country-style restaurant in Havana, Cuba that serves only white rice, French fries and a delightful chicken with all the sauce you want. Someone gave me this recipe, and it's similar to the one served at that restaurant. The orange juice and lemon juice give it a sweet, pungent flavor.

I have brought this recipe with me, from the time we left Cuba in 1959 - the year that dreaded man took over - and ruined the country, as we can see now - some 40 odd years later. It is typical of the chicken dishes served all over Miami now.
