This was so tasty on tilapia! To make this 5 star, I added grated garlic-2 cloves, white pepper and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar. I marinated my fish for a couple hours in the fridge. I served it with jasmine rice, King Hawaiian rolls and skewers of grilled baby carrots-yum! I will use again, I think orange juice is one of my favorite marinade ingredients for fish! Thanks!

I am on the fence with this one. I marinated prawns, but unfortunately, I pulled out the wrong bag and they were 51-60 count. Maybe if they were a bigger prawn they might have bbq'ed up better! Everyone liked them...but I was expecting something a bit more from this sauce. Maybe if it had some garlic in the marinade there would be a more of a pow to it!!! Sorry I am "odd man out"!

This is a 5-STAR recipe all the way! I didn't have any scallions on hand, so chopped up some fresh chives from the garden and used that in the marinade. Used jumbo shrimp (raw, peeled and de-veined) and marinaded for 2-3 hours. Used wooden skewers and grilled for just 3 minutes per side....perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor!!!

I am an American married to a Belgian, and have lived in Belgium since December 1999. Cooking is my major hobby. I'm also an avid reader, but I have difficulty finding the time. I love to travel. Since moving to Europe I've been lucky enough to have had the opportunity to go a couple of times per year to Paris, as well as having visited London, Rome, Florence, Naples, Amsterdam, and of course Brussels and Antwerp. I've seen at least parts of most regions of France, as well as parts of Germany, Austria, a great deal of Switzerland, Slovenia, Croatia, Luxembourg, and Monaco. I'm absolutely in love with the Bay of Naples and Sorrento coast areas of Italy, which my husband and I recently re-visited on a trip that included Rome, Puglia, Umbria and Marche. I'm still looking forward to Ireland, Spain, Portugal, the Czech Republic . . . the list is too long ! One of the bonuses of travel is getting to taste the local cuisine, and afterward trying to figure out how to duplicate it at home.
I think cooking is one of the nicest things a person can do for someone they love (including themself!)
I had to submit a picture with me and my cat, Sophie, as she insists on sitting in my lap when I'm sitting at the computer. If you are wondering what all that stuff hanging on the wall behind us in the photo is, it is just a small part of my husband's military medal collection. He was appalled by my posting this picture-- Our study is the messiest room in our house (thank god!)
