I made this with tilapia, and all the flavors worked wonderfully together. I think the thicker cod or halibut would work, but I prefer a thinner fish. I served with some salsa and sour cream. I think this would make wonderful fish tacos, and I'll re-use this recipe for that. Thanks so much for the recipe!

What a wonderful compliment to my Spanish rice! The lime flavors really came through. I used tilapia as that was all I had, and it was the star of the show! Thanks!
