"Sweetbreads are tasty and easily digested. I couldn't find a spicy recipe so invented this simple, delicious dish. The sliced jalapeno gives a lovely bite of heat."

- Cook's Note:
- I used frozen New Zealand lamb sweetbreads. These did not need black veins and skin removed, as may be necessary with fresh ones. Calf sweetbreads may also be used, but these will need more attention to prepare.
