This dish is absolutely DELICIOUS! I added some shiitake mushrooms I had to use, used calamata olives, and put all the lemon slices in the pan. The dish is rich in flavor and the house smells wonderful while it's cooking. I served it over some tiny farfalle. My husband practically licked his plate. This is going in my rotation of go-to meals. Fabulous!
