I must be the biggest whip when it comes to heat. We landed in Dallas yesterday and walking out of the airport was something. Bam!
All of a sudden you were hit with a blast of hot air. I wonder if I ever moved to a place like this, would I get used to it? My guess. Highly unlikely.
What I do have for you today is a recipe that is quick and easy to make. It requires one pan. I am convinced it is a pretty darn good summer meal. One of those that doesn't make you feel bad for turning on the oven for an hour with the A/C on.
The ingredients were pretty basic. I had them all right on hand. We happened to grow a huge plant of parsley this year. It was cool to go pick some for the recipe. I think the fresh parsley on top added a ton of extra fresh flavor.
I already know this is going to be on the menu again shortly.
