Made this recipe tonight for dinner, minus the pepper flakes, ( don't agree with me ) and substituted Cajun spice. Everything else the same. Absolutely delicious!!! Will be making it again for company!!

Made this for dinner, my wife loved it, the only thing I did not add (lack of having them) was the capers. I thought it turned out pretty well though. It was delicious, thank you for the recipe.

Is there a simple way to print recipes from this site?! Maybe I’m missing something but just a “print” button would be nice. Thanks! -
