To make the mojo, mix onion and garlic, along with the spices, salt and

Cook just until onion becomes translucent and then add juice, water,
wine and vinegar; simmer about 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly

in several places with long fork prongs and place in non-reactive

Sauce. Pour mixture over chicken. Cover and marinate in refrigerator
for about 1 hour. Remove chicken breasts from marinade, pat dry and fry
them in olive oil until they are golden brown. Place chicken on
serving platter and keep warm. Remove onion and garlic from marinade
and brown in same pan. Sprinkle over chicken and garnish with parsley.
