“Love this recipe! It is so fresh tasting. I’ve used Cajun or Creole seasoning in addition to Old Bay. Since it requires few ingredients and cooks up fast in only one pan, this is a regular meal for us both at home and when traveling.” — a cook, 5.0★
“Absolutely love this recipe! Quick,simple and tasty. I used frozen asparagus tips, and pre-cooked (peeled, deveined & tailless), then served over cheesy cauliflower rice. Definitely in the regular rotation!” — a cook, 5.0★
