My family loves this recipe! My boyfriend asked me to make it twice in one week. It was very simple to make.

This has become a family favorite. My daughters friends even came over for a cooking class to learn how to make this delicious dish before going off to college.

This recipe is wonderful. I always get rave reviews whenever I serve it. It's a family favorite. My daughters friends took this recipe with them to college. I always make more of the butter/seasoning coating than the recipe calls for. A definate keeper.
