Absolutely fantastic! This recipe has all my favorite flavors and it certainly didn't disappoint. Like the previous reviewer, I skipped the marinating step and used my stovetop grill. I added a bit more garlic to the cumin aioli and it was "out of this world" good! Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe, BBC. A genuine keeper!

We had a spell of warm weather to pull out the grill! As part of the Aussie recipe swap -- this was one of my pick. Yummy and Very easy to put together - and imo could bypass the marinating in the oil (for speedier timesake).. The aioli was good - however - the boys thought it was spicy==I thought it was fine though! Thanks for posting!!
