For the record, I can’t take credit for this recipe but I’m so happy to pass it along to you. I ate years ago on a girls’ weekend and have been making it on repeat ever since – it’s that good!

It’s hardly a recipe at all – but more of an idea and I guarantee you can’t mess it up. Simple, understated, it packs serious flavor punch and takes almost no time to whip up.
