   Long and detailed recipes can be fun to try when I’ve got a lot of time, but I really love a quick, easy and delicious meal almost every day of the week (unless I’m feeling fancy) so under 30mins meals are my favourite. This one takes about 20min from start to finish and has minimal cleanup. Throw your pans in the dishwasher, wipe the cutting board and all done! Seriously easy cleanup is the best.
