This is a traditional Nicaraguan Marinade made with achiote, a slightly sweet and peppery spice. You can find it in a paste or powder form and both are fine to use in this recipe.
Ingredients:
1 tbs. achiote paste OR 1.5 tbs. achiote powder
1 tbs cider vinegar
1 tbs. worcestershire sauce
1/2 tbs. mustard
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. sugar
1 tbs. olive oil
1/2 tbs. pepper
2 garlic cloves finely diced
Directions:
1. Mix all the ingredients together

ReplyDeleteI made the Confetti salad and chicken with tomatoes and basil last week. Both were delicious! My mother never put salt on food by the time I came along. It really makes a difference.
I'm set to make tuna patties on Friday.
