"I found this recipe on the WWW years ago, and I apologize that I don't know who the author is... We enjoy the simplicity and the flavor of this dish. I serve it with Long Grain and Wild Rice and Green Beans. Enjoy!

This was really good. I served it with mashed red potatoes, and everybody liked it. I followed the directions given almost to the letter except that I accidentally doubled the amount of sauce and I cut the amount of butter for frying in half. Next time, I think I will reduce the lemon in the sauce just a little bit, but that is personal preference as everyone else in my family liked it just the way it was.

I made quite a few changes or personal alterations, but it served as an XCLNT starter recipe. Easily altered to a magnifo asian dish. YYUUMMMMMMY, thanks again for sharing
