Very good with ingredients similar to jambalaya, but different seasonings and taste. I used about 1/2 lb smoked sausage and 1/2 lb chicken breast cut into strips and browned. Didn't have pimiento so I used about 1/4 cup each of chopped red and green pepper. Also added about 1/4 chopped onion. Used soaked/rinsed Basmati rice. Be sure to use a LARGE skillet.

Herb Crusted Lamb with Mint Sauce
Instead of cooking ham or prime rib for Easter, why not try something new this year? Our Herb-Crusted Lamb with Mint Sauce may look and sound fancy, but it's really easy to do. It's basically a rack of lamb that's coated with herbs and spices before it's roasted to perfection. Just before serving, it's finished off with a mint-wine reduction. The end result is an Easter-worthy main dish that'll impress everyone at the table.
