Description
This is a great weeknight dish. Only one skillet to clean afterwards! I adapted this from a recipe that i found in southern living years ago. Of course you can use turkey or chicken sausage and it doesn't change the flavor. If i don't have any left-over chicken then i buy a roasted one from the store.
