I started out fixing another recipe but didn't have all the ingredients, so I came up with this one! The spice gives it a flavorful kick. You can make your own five-spice powder by combining cloves, cinnamon, anise and nutmeg. I love that you can prepare this dish on the stovetop or the grill. —Jill Thomas, Washington, Indiana
