Rob requested this recipe on the New Recipe thread, but since I've posted it before, it really doesn't qualify as a "new recipe", so I thought I would start another thread. I've served this with basmati rice and it was fantastic to catch all the extra sauce, but my DH likes it with mashed potatoes.
