    Haven’t made this yet had a basic knowledge of what to do, gonna serve this along side a strip steak. Mostly needed the timings. I know that they are all great together! Had it before but never cooked myself. Thank you for your recipe and timings.

    This was good! I added to the recipe chopped fresh spinach, cannaloni beans and more garlic, lemon pepper and crisped chopped Canadian….all things I had on hand and wanted to use. I served this dish with broiled salmon marinated in a mixture of Italian style fresh herbs and a vinaigrette. It was delicious! Thanks for the inspiration.
