RECAITO
There really is no translation for this mixture of onion, garlic, peppers and green herbs. Recao is culantro in Puerto Rican-speak, so this seasoning is called recaito, or "little culantro." You can buy it in bottles in some ethnic grocery stores but why? when it's so simple to make. Use in dishes like Cuban black beans or Puerto Rican style pot roast, where you want the flavor but not the color or extra liquid that you have in a sofrito. Culantro is the defining flavor.

Steps:
- Place the onion and garlic in the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade.
- With the motor running, add the remaining ingredients, one at a time and process, until the mixture is smooth.
- Set aside the amount you need for the recipe you're preparing.
- Pack the remaining recaito in ½-cup portions in sealable plastic bags and store in freezer.
- *** Cooks notes:
- *** Ajices Dulces, also known as cachucha or ajicitos are tiny sweet peppers with a hint of heat. They range in color from light to medium green and yellow to red and orange. They add freshness and an herby note to anything you cook. Do not mistake them for Scotch bonnet or Habanero chilies (which they look like)--those two pack a wallop when it comes to heat.
- *** Culantro is not cilantro. It has long leaves with tapered tips and serrated edges. When it comes to flavor, culantro is like cilantro times ten.

CHICKEN FRICASE
YUM! This is great. I got this from my mother-in-law (who is Puerto Rican) and it turns out excellent! Rich sauce, flavorful chicken and potatoes served over hot steaming rice. This can also be adapted to be made in the slow cooker (season the chicken, brown in a skillet and then dumpt it and the rest of the ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on low for about 4-5 hours, depending on your slow cooker).**Sofrito-you can use my recipe "Sofrito-Puerto Rican/Dominican", use someone else's or buy Goya Sofrito or Recaito.

Steps:
- 1. Make a paste of the adobo, olive oil, vinegar, garlic and salt.
- 2. Rub/brush the chicken with the paste, let sit for up to an hour (if you don't have time to let the seasoning sit it will still taste pretty good).
- 3. Brown the chicken in a large heavy saucepan in the 3 tbs olive oil, set aside on separate plate, leave the renderings and oil in the pan.
- 4. In the oil saute the ham and sofrito for 3 minutes or so.
- 5. Add the chicken and the rest of the ingredients, and cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes until chicken and potatoes are cooked & tender.
- 6. Enjoy! This recipe is great served with rice and gets better after sitting in the fridge for a day or two.
