Add Step-by-Step Photos	Lacrenshaw / All my dishes 8 months, 2 weeks ago Courtesy of Southern Living, January 2009 via myrecipes, this dish sounds astonishingly good to me. You can simply spritz it with lemon juice but the sauce is probably well worth the effort! Prep:20m Cook:14m Servings:4	Lacrenshaw
