Blue Apron ~ Marsala-Spiced Chicken

This was a very colorful meal of Marsala-Spiced Chicken with Kale and Lime Rice.  I think this is the first time I have had kale alone as a vegetable and not mixed with something else.

The chicken was inspired by classic Indian marsala-spiced tomato sauce.  It also was flavored with garlic and ginger.  It was a very nice touch.  I didn't make it quite as spicy as the recipe called for.  Any spice was tempered by the lime Jasmine rice.

I nice quick and easy meal.

Blue Apron ~ Tandoori-Spiced Chicken

Tonight's meal was Tandoori-Spiced Chicken with Green Lentils, Heirloom Eggplant and Cucumber-Mint Yogurt.  Unfortunately, this meal arrived without the lentils.  I didn't have any on hand, so I had to buy a package.  I hope I can find a use for the remainder of the package.

The lentils were cooked with the eggplant and onion.  I substituted chicken broth for the water to cook the lentils.  After the vegetables were cooked, the cucumber-mint yogurt was mixed in with them.  It made for an interesting taste combination.

The chicken was coated with a Tandoori-spice mix and cooked.

My hubby really enjoyed the chicken, but the lentils, not so much.  I enjoyed both.
