Christmas Eve dinner for our gathering. Loved it. Sauce is awesome and will definitely be topping some warmed brie cheese with leftovers.

My Fiance and I tried this about a week ago, and it was absolutely delicious. There is some prep time included, especially since we could not find pre chopped pistashios. It was the first meal in a while that we did not have left overs (we did half the recipe for just the two of us).
