Since the honey lime dressing was not available at the grocery store, I had to use a substitute. The grocery store also lacked fresh basil, but I found a basil lime vinagerette dressing and just added some honey for the marinade. It worked well and the dish had a "different but good" taste as my friend described it, and is an excellent lighter summer dish.
