This made a great supper dish on Saturday night. I served this with a tossed salad of baby green leaves and cherry tomatoes. A good blend of flavours. Another 'keeper' in my book. :)

I made this using an Italian seasoning blend because I'm not a fan of dill and parmesan because I didn't have feta. I recommend following the recipe as written as my way resulted in a rather bland entree.
