Hubs calls it comfort food fish. We both liked it - we used cod... and we served it with cooked barley and roasted vegetables. What a nice meal. Thank you for posting.

Hei from Norway. I did this recipe yesterday. My Husband and I really liked it. I must agree that the touch of grated lemon is PERFECT. I felt in the Caribbean!!!

I used fresh tilapia and dried parsley. The sauce is full of flavor. It's a great recipe that I'll be doing often with white fish. Thanks Lynette :) Made for 123 hit wonders
