When I invite a few friends over for an after work supper, I often serve this recipe, as it is so easy and tasty! I serve it with a homemade Parker House roll and a green salad. We can visit in the kitchen with a cold glass of Chardonnay, while I cook, and catch up on each others busy lives. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do!
