Other than leaving out the salt, rarely use it on any meat I made this right down the line. Very nicely seasoned, though I am a fan of cumin seased meat, as for the salsa,my daughter, and myself particularly dont care for avocados, but we tried it, and were impressed with it. and was a nice compliment to the dish. Couln't decide what t serve with this, so just went with some basic fries, and made for a nice complete meal. Cooking time was right on the money. Made for Holiday Tag.
