You can't ask for an easier recipe to make...and the sauce has a wonderful flavor. This is going to be made often...it's so quick to prepare...I served it with an Asian pasta dish and steamed broccoli...

WOW!!!! This is a great tasting recipe that I will be making quite often. The only change I made was using fresh chives as I was out of green onions. DH could not belive this was done in the microwave and ready in no time. A perfect recipe for a busy weeknight. Made for the Alphabet Soup Recipe Tag Game.
