Cuban-Style Pork Pernil with Garlicky Mojo
Chef Akhtar takes on pork pernil, a traditional Cuban-style roasted pork, and pairs it with all the fixings and sauces of the Caribbean island. Succulent on the inside with that perfectly crisp skin on the outside, the pork is undeniably the star of this meal, especially when served with mojo, a garlicky citrus sauce that provides a tangy, acidic contrast to the rich meat. Accompanied by crunchy yucca fries and moro rice—spiced rice and saucy black beans—Chef's zesty Cuban cooking is perfect for those who love bold flavors and hearty meals.
