This was very easy and very tasty! I served over jasmati rice. It wasn't the "prettiest" because of all of the green, but oh so tasty! And spicy! We love spicy in this house - if a recipe has jalepenos, we usually like it. I was hesitant to give it to our 2 year old because of the spiciness, but he LOVED it! LOL The chopping was the only prep needed. Thanks for sharing - I wouldn't change a thing (except maybe dice my onions even tinier).
