This was superb. I didn't have dried onion flakes so I used about 1/2 tsp of onion powder instead. I served it with a salad of romaine lettuce, strawberry quarters, halved red and green grapes and cantelope chunks, all tossed with some feta cheese. The cheese was perfect because it spreads well when mixed around. Dressing was served on the side. You don't need much because it is so flavorful. The rest of dinner was couscous (from a box) and grilled stuffed portabello mushrooms(recipe 162961). My husband said the flavors were well balanced and he loved it all. Thanks for the delicious recipe! -
