  1. Wow–delicious! I got this on the OAMM email today and it’s for dinner already tonight. Why wait when it’s this good? 🙂 Since it was too late in the day to fire up the barby I made this a stirfry instead. We’re going to have to increase the recipe or none is going to make it into the freezer next time! Thanks for this great dish for grilling season. A photo of my version is on the #oamm tag on Instagram for anyone who wants to see how it turns out as a stir fry.
