I just saw it in the Aug. Sept. 2016 Simple & Delicious. I like the concept, but I think it was lacking the oooomph I was looking for. Maybe adding some chili powder or some hot pepper sauce to the mix would do it. I would eliminate the lemon pepper, cut back on the garlic, and jazz it up with something with a ZING to it.
