Delicious lemon flavor! It makes a very attractive dish. I added was a sprinkle of salt and used sesame oil. DH and I ate a large serving. Served it with mermaidmagic's Spicy Grilled Catfish recipe #106994.

Very pretty, but next time I'll cut the amount of lemon juice in half or only use black pepper instead of lemon pepper-- we found this a bit too rawly acidic for our tastes (sorry!). Thanks for posting.
