Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

Great recipe! I used flat leaf parsley instead of cilantro...and used sicilian spices and red pepper flakes as well. Will become a staple and base for variations.
The dish was easy to make after a busy day at work. The men in my house really liked this dish. I would like to try it with shrimp, feta and hot pepper, in place of chicken & mozzerella.
