Looking for fish recipes since it is Lent. I will bookmark this one.
Rocket Bunny,
I was think the same thing now that it’s lent. I guess my timing was right on! Thanks for your comment!
Great recipe I will make tonight for dinner.
This looks so yummy! I wonder, how well do the flavors used here work with other types of fish? I can obviously experiment myself, but I’m wondering if you can give any advice?
