I loved this dish and so did my family! Super easy to make. I didn't have any pearl onions so I used sliced red onion. Thanks for the recipes this is a keeper. :)
Great dish. Super easy and delicious!
This was really tasty. I made a few changes - added a couple of herbs and switched the mint to cilantro, because my husband is allergic to mint - I posted about it to my blog if you're looking for more details. Anyway, I liked this a lot but I wouldn't say it fed 8. 6 would be a little more accurate, IMHO.
