    Love your show Big Daddy; watching you cook makes me smile. Friday I saw the episode with this recipe, the blackened salmon, the spicy Swiss chard, etc. I made the meal today, Sunday, and all I can say is OMG! Everything was delicious, easy to prepare (I'm not a novice in the kitchen, and readily available in my local grocery store. I followed the recipes for this meal exactly. I thought the blackening seasoning for the salmon would be too spicy, but it was perfect. First time I ever had swiss chard....mmmm good. Will make this again very soon.

    Simply delicious-- and one of the easiest side dishes I have ever made! I only used 1 lemon and 1 tsp. of pepper, because my husband doesn't like spicy. I also substituted cream cheese for the mascarpone, just because I didn't want to spend the extra money. I was just fab!

    My daughter cooked this with chicken kabobs for my Birthday last year (2011 and it was divine!!!
    She substituted cream cheese for mascarpone because we could not find at our grocery!

    This was a really good and simple recipe. As I read the other reviews, I also just used the juice of one lemon, but still found it too soupy. Next time I will only use 1 Tbsp of cream as opposed to 1/4.

    I tried the blackened Tilapia with the Lemon Pepper Orzo at a concert where Chef McCargo was doing a demo. This dish is OFF THE CHAIN! Excellent flavor, and all around amazing! My entire EMS crew loved it and we plan to cook it at the station soon.

    Was fortunate enough to be at the Show Me Music & Arts Festival in Springfield, Mo when you made this Bro Aaron & even more fortunate to be offered the opportunity to taste it (I was the hefty fellow with the cane & straw cowbow hat that you invited up near the end. An exquisite dish. Excellent balance, but you've got to truly love big bold tastes. Not for the weak of palate. I WILL make this for my wife & I. Despite my handicaps, cooking is something I refuse to give up entirely. God bless you, my dear brother.

    A delicious week night alternative to a long cooking risotto. This was sone while the pork chops finished in the oven. I agree with the comments regarding the use of one lemon's juice. Any more and it would have been too lemony. I also used half and half instead of cream. Definitely a keeper and will be a tasty addition to Easter dinner.

    I've made this several times. It's always a winner with family and guests alike. Great with fish, beef & pork. I always substitute half & half for the heavy cream and a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little 'heat'. Sometimes I add a teaspoon of granulated garlic for a different twist.
