I tried to repeat last week‘s Blue Apron Orange-Olive Chicken recipe but H Mart didn’t have olives and I didn’t realize that the olives-in-a-jar that I saw at Ralphs is how olives are normally sold. So I put mushrooms instead. And marinated the chicken for one day instead of 10 minutes.
It doesn’t… quite taste as vibrant as the original dish. It’s alright though. The chicken felt relatively dry for something that’s been marinated for so long. Maybe it’s because it was in the freezer for a few weeks.
