This recipe is perfect if you are short on time and want a super easy, delicious meal. All you need is six simple ingredients that probably are already in your kitchen! This recipe is also a great option for a group as it is very easy to double the recipe if you have people coming over or a large family! I love this recipe because the garlic infuses in the rich olive oil to create a robust flavor profile that truly tastes gourmet! I hope you enjoy!
