This recipe is great for both fast and easy weeknight dinners and for entertaining! Ras el hanout is a mixture of ground spices that typically includes various peppers, cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, turmeric and mace. It can be found in the spice section of well-stocked supermarkets. For a more peppery slider, substitute baby arugula for the leaf lettuce. —Kathi Jones-DelMonte, Rochester, New York
