  1. This was great! I used Tilapia and I did not have chives so I used Cilantro!! Also I flavored the fish with garlic powder and Cumin. I put the x-tra sauce on our mex.flavored vegies. This is a keeper. The sauce coulp be used on many foods. Thanks for the Recipie********
     
  2. YUM! I made a few modifications: Low-fat sour cream Jalapeños from a jar Layer of fresh sliced avocado I added some sauteed spinach with garlic and plain steamed cauliflower on the side. I'll definitely make this again!
     
  3. I really liked the flavor of the sauce. I used fat free sour cream and it gave it a grainy texture. Next time i make this....and there will be a next time, I will use regular sour cream. I also added a little garlic and it just made it that much better.
     
  4. WONDERFUL. I wanted to lick the plate! I didn't have fresh jalapenos, but did have Sweet Hot jarred jalapenos. Gave the sauce just the right amount of sweet. Can't wait to fix this again.. Thanks Tonkcats.
     
  5. Next time I may adjust the temp or the cook time, as my salmon was a little over done. Other than that this was simple and quick to make and absolutely delicious!
