GREAT recipe. Made this last night for dinner guests & it was a big hit. It was completely & happily devoured by all. We liked it so much we are putting it on the menu for ourselves this week. I did make a few adjustments, though. Added extra red pepper flakes as we like a lot of spice, and instead of using flour as the thickener I used a tad of milk with a bit of cornstarch.
