Made this yesterday for a family dinner and everyone loved it. I didn’t add the chicken but will add the next time. Lots of leftover oil but keeping for other recipes its so good!! I could not find fresh oregano so I used dried Mexican oregano but only used 2 tbsp plus 2 teaspoons since dried is more potent.
