Good recipe. 2 of the kids ate the is up. The youngest wasn’t having it. So, put his in a tortilla wrap with cheese & he was non the wiser. Haha. I cooked it on my outside flat grill. Sauced it up & back on the outdoor grill for a few min. Perfect! I will make again for the other kids. They love it & it’s so easy. Thanks
