I first tasted this dish at a friends about 30yrs.ago. I liked it, but something just was a little off for me so I began to play with it and came up with a favorite. My whole family loves it, even the grandkids and friends. To me it's very tasty comfort food, and it reminds me of a deconstructed sausage sandwich at the fair, only instead of bread it's served over rice! Very colorful when plated too!
