This was a most delicious recipe.... and so thoughtfully written--an example being to be careful not to burn the garlic (something I am always doing!). To have so many delectable flavors for the taste buds plus to be good for you is a treat indeed. The big bonus for me was to be introduced to the Quorn brand. I had seen this in the frozen section at Sprouts but always passed it by. I almost always am very disappointed in meat substitutes. I followed Ms. Wanda's suggestion and tried their chunks, and she's right--you would never know it's not chicken--except it's more tender than chicken! My husband loved this dish, and was disappointed I had frozen the remainder--he wanted to keep eating it meal after meal. Thank you for giving us a wonderful alternative to a meat based meal without us feeling the least deprived!
