"I received this in an email from our local news web site courtesy of J Bucks. This is my DH favorite meal at J Bucks. I usually do not post a recipe without trying but since this recipe is suppose to be directly from the restaurant, I am posting. The serving size is not posted so I am assuming this is for 2 (their serving sizes are huge). You make up the sauce first. The recipe does not state how much sauce this does make. The instructions are not as thorough as I would like. Once I try the recipe, I will update."

We really did enjoy this very much, but I did cut down on the spices.... I doubled the amount of sauce, as we like a lot of sauce, and it's good to have extra in the fridge. but as I started with the spices, I did think, whoa....in the end, I put in pretty well the stated amount of spices, into a doubled up amount of sauce, and I can assure you, it was Very hot and spicy! Even DH, who does like very spicy food, was fanning himself a bit! that said, it is delicious, we loved it, and yes, I will make it again! Made for Australian/NZ swap#26, March 2009
