Great flavor! Yesterday I had grilled fish and it was a perfect time for this sauce. I also added fresh parsley for the aroma and the colour and a tiny amount of oregano! I had never tasted garlic on grilled fish, but it is so good! I reduced the amount of the oil and next time I'll use olive oil instead of canola oil. Thanks for posting!Reply

I really enjoyed this recipe but I have to say that you really don't need much to serve with your fish, etc. as it is (obviously) quite oily. Just a drizzle is perfect. I made it as directed (nearly setting fire to the oil in the process!!) and served over salmon. The flavours were fairly delicate but I was quite cautious with the lime following the intro comments and so perhaps this was my fault. I will probably tamper with the garlic and lime amounts a bit to get everything to my liking but this was a good, easy (although a little scary with the hot oil!) recipe and a definite keeper.Reply
