Given the fact that this recipe includes few fresh ingredients, you might expect it to be less than stellar. But it's really delicious. Next time I'll only use 1T chili as it was very hot. I used 2 cloves of fresh garlic, rather than the dried. I can see no reason why this couldn't be equally good fixed in a pan on the stovetop in less than an hour.
