A delicious recipe. It is not the most common way to make this bird in Cuba, but the recipe is used very frequently at Christmas, or on days of special dinners with family and friends. It is simple, it does not require many ingredients, unless we want to make it stuffed. It can be served with rice or roasted vegetables.
Ingredients:
  • 1 2 lb. chicken.
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 2 onions chopped in julienne
  • 3 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 1/4 lb. of butter
  • Salt, pepper and cumin to taste
Instructions:

Season the whole chicken with salt and pepper. Crush the garlic and rub it over the chicken. Add cumin to your taste. Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Cut the onion into julienne strips and set aside. Grease the baking dish or tray with the butter. Add the chopped onion and place the chicken on top. Add the wine over the chicken and place in the oven for approximately 1 hour. During this period, baste the chicken, between two and three times, with the juice it gives off to prevent the meat from drying out too much. It is a very delicious and easy international recipe that is made in each region with particular characteristics. If you like, you can add rosemary which gives a special smell, despite not being a widely used condiment in Cuba, it will be liked by diners.
