This was VERY easy and VERY delicious... I have always looked for a nice way to prepare okra and have often been a little disappointed, but not this time. People at my dinner party thought it was very tasy, too!

Very simple but very good. The Jalepeno is a must. If you're like me and have Okra in your garden, pick it small or it gets too tough to eat!
