This is a fun new recipe I found in the Taste of Home Healthy Cooking magazine. It was super quick and easy to make and despite me overcooking it slightly it still ended up being quite the crowd pleaser at our house. The rich smoky flavor of the BBQ sauce combined with the crispy french fried onions, was definitely a winning combination! We served it up with some BBQ dipping sauce and some ranch dressing, a fruit smoothie, and a salad. It was a perfectly yummy weeknight dinner.
