This is a delightful dish that will see repeats here! Had to make a couple of changes. Used dried dill, and a salt substitute. And I used an Olio Peperoncino olive oil from Italy. It gave the the dish a wee bit of wonderful heat. Thank you for sharing your recipe Ellie! Made for Billboard Recipe Tag.
