Ingredients

1 tablespoon Madras curry powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon pepper
8 boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 4 ounces each)
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1-1/2 cups Goya Mojo Criollo marinade, well-shaken
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Hot cooked rice, green onions and fresh cilantro leaves, optional

Instructions

Combine curry powder, garlic powder and pepper; sprinkle over chicken, pressing to help it adhere. Place chicken in a 3-qt. slow cooker.
Sprinkle with onion. Carefully pour Goya Mojo Marinade along the sides of slow cooker, avoiding chicken to keep coating intact.
Cook, covered, on low until a thermometer reads 170°, 4-6 hours. Remove chicken; keep warm.
Pour cooking juices from slow cooker into a measuring cup; skim fat. In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; whisk in flour until smooth.
Gradually whisk in cooking juices. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat; add chicken and simmer about 5 minutes.
If desired, serve with rice, green onions and cilantro leaves.

Notes

Mojo Criollo (pronounced mo-ho cree-OH-yo) is a citrus-based marinade commonly used in Latin American and Caribbean cooking. You'll find it in large bottles in most supermarkets.

Chop up leftovers and fill warmed tortillas for Caribbean-style burritos. Amazing!
