This recipe came from one of many "Quick and Easy" recipe books that I have acquired over the years. And it definitely was quick and easy...and very yummy! I got to enjoy this dish with my girlfriend Andrea who happened to be in my neighborhood this night...how convenient! She gave this recipe rave reviews...thanks Andrea!

G's Side notes:
The original recipe didn't call for any of the vegetables that I added. I love all these flavors in this recipe and I think you could add any veggies you have on hand. Next time, I think I will add pineapple too!
