Holy crap. This is absolutely delicious. The spice, the way it cooks (so moist and tender inside). Love, love, love. I can't tell if I used smoked paprika (sweet Hungarian for sure, but the label is hand-written and lacking), and I definitely used LESS OLIVE OIL. Instead of 3 tbsp, I just used 3 tsp. I couldn't tell the difference, so why not save on calories/fat?<br/><br/>I want to eat this every day for the rest of my life. Even then, I wouldn't be eating it often enough.

I love cooking and always have. I learned how to cook as a young kid and I've worked as a prep cook for a catering company and for a restaurant though I am no longer working in that industry.
Being a food lover, it was an unpleasant surprise to develop major food intolerances within the past few years. I've been 100% gluten-free since 07/06 out of medical necessity and am cutting down on dairy and soy since they make me ill in large quantities. I'm also working on becoming kosher. So, you'll see reflected in my recipes my recent interest in developing recipes that are both kosher and suitable for people with food allergies, without sacrificing taste. And there's lots of good stuff in my cookbooks for those of you with no food allergies, too, of course!
My areas of specialty are gluten-free baking and cooking, dairy substitution, vegan and vegetarian dishes, and Jewish cooking.
