Submitted by Londonsbk

"I got this recipe from Bobby Flay's Boy Meets Grill. It is simple, outstanding, and a real pleaser. I make this for people when they visit my home for the first time and it is often requested each time they return. I usually have variation suggestions for the recipes I post but this one I like just the way it is."
