This was amazing! The lime zest made the fish crispy like it had been breaded and fried. We made extra and ate all of it in one sitting. The lime on the spinach was very tart. I recommend tasting as you pour the juice. It was very good as well. <br/>Went to Trader Joe's and bought more tilapia. Making it again tonight. First time ever that my husband asked for more fish.Reply
