I wanted to grill this but the weather had other intentions. Sauteeing turned out much better then I could have anticipated. Some of my most favorite flavors mingling for a moist, delicious, most satisfying meal. I used prepared pesto and naan but next time will make them fresh. It will then truly be out of this world good!
