Introduction

I got this recipe out of a Williams Sonoma cookbook. You can make this as spicy as you want it or as mild as you want it. With 2 jalapenos, it has a nice kick. One jalapeno, it has a milder spice. I prefer spicier :-) This dish is delcious served over steamed basmati rice (brown or white). I got this recipe out of a Williams Sonoma cookbook.
