Very flavorful! This is definitely a must try! Could also be eaten without rice since it looks heavy.

I love the versatility of this recipe. This is a great way to use up all the veggies that are left over in the crisper or even frozen veggies. I would also make this with shrimp and as a vegetarian dish. I would serve this with quinoa, bulgur, noodles or pretty much any side I have on hand.
