Notes

Make the full recipe: this one is enough effort to want to get two dinners out of it.
Can make the Red Adobo sauce in advance, in quantity, and keep that in the fridge.
Bayless calls for smaller boiling potatoes, but slicing some normal-sized ones works well -- maybe better, since it gives nice flat sides to roast
Uses: Oven
Goes With: Not bad with shredded brussels sprouts, finished with some of the Red Adobo sauce, salt and pepper.
