This dish is pretty involved I have to admit but so so good! I'll typically cook this on a weeknight I feel like shutting down early and spending a little more time at the stove. You can use jasmine rice for it to be a bit more hearty but typically I like to keep it light during the week and substitute with some cauliflower rice.
