I had this for dinner last night. It's a great recipe for guests! This is for two servings, but I think it could easily be expanded. I served this with roasted potatoes, started 30 minutes earlier. (salt and pepper were the seasonings and added the green onion the last 15 min.. cooked the same temp--cooked on foil, uncovered)
