What I love about this recipe is it can all be done in the same pan. You know in this world of fast food, it is nice every once in a while to slow down and enjoy some “comfort meals“ and this is just one of those dishes. I took this recipe, from my aunt on my father’s side, and tweaked it a bit. And when my husband and I sat down to dinner, well it zapped me back to her house, her kitchen and her table.
