From inside the carton of a tube of Amore Garlic Paste. Saving here for safe keeping as I couldn't find the same recipe already posted. I am guessing on times as I haven't had a chance to make this yet since we still have several feet of snow on!!! (Doesn't include marinating time.) **Made this last night on the griddle pan on the stovetop. Loved it and can't wait to try this on the charcoal grill... Light, filling and flavorful!
