This is my favorite dish that actually won an award when I was in culinary school. Right?! I created it late one night, throwing a bunch of things together that just sounded great. It’s still my go-to, my favorite, and my gift to you. Note that this dish should be served over brown rice, white rice, or quinoa to soak up the delicious sauce.
