Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Oregano is an herb from the mint family; it's related to marjoram and thyme. All these herbs grow abundantly in the Mediterranean, and they are important flavorings in the area's cuisines.
  • tip 2
    Two teaspoons of dried oregano can be substituted for the fresh oregano for this recipe. For a bit of fresh color, mix the garnishing teaspoon of oregano with a tablespoon of freshly chopped parsley.
  • tip 3
    Accompany this dish with steamed asparagus, tomato slices and olives.
