This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Very nice recipe..I omitted the mint as I find it to over powering. I added more garlic and had a very Greek taste.Great main dish with chicken breast.
