This was one of the best dishes I have had in a long time. The instructions were easy to follow. I used all grouper instead of shrimp and scallops. The combination of sweet potatoes and spinach is an incredible flavor that is totally unexpected.

This is the worst dish I've ever had. Not only was it expensive to make the so called chef or whoever coming up with the recipe didn't have a clue as to what they were doing. Way too much cream, not enough seasoning, just a sloppy mess. You can't cook. Take a few lessons or something. This is still stinking up my kitchen.

Was good tasting and simple to do but agree with others lacks taste. We added lemon pepper seasoning and it made it fantastic. We used half and half and recomend with a bit of flour to thicken it up. Was a hit though ;o

I made this to have something different to supplement the Turkey for Thanksgiving this year and everyone loved it. We added a pound of lump blue crabmeat to the shrimp, sea scallops and fish and used half and half. The half and half made it less thick but the resulting sauce by itself turned into the best seafood chowder ever. We added a teaspoon of old bay too. We have travelled a lot in Maine and New England trying similar dishes and this is better than them all. Hope to add lobster next time or just add the crab again.

I only had halibut at home & it was still fantastic. My husband couldn't stop saying how good it was. Can't wait to try it with shrimp & scallops too.

On the advice of a previous reviewer, I considered adding additional seasonings. So what goes with spinach and cream? Nutmeg (freshly grated, garlic and cayenne! I tossed these seasonings with the seafood. I also, due to health considerations, substituted fat free half and half for the cream. Although the half and half does not thicken up it made a tasty stew like broth for the other components. Might consider trying to thicken it prior to putting it all together the next time. I also substituted cod for the halibut. To add additional crunch and flavor, I also added chopped green scallions and italian parsley with the fresh spinach. It was a hit at our dinner table.

When I first read this recipe I wasn't sure about the sweet potatoes flavoring with the seafood, although I am a big fan of them. Well let me tell you, the total combination was absolutely awesome! I made this the first time for myself, my husband and another couple, who are hugh seafood fans. I was a little worried that it would not live up to all of our expections. As I was preparing it, my friend suggested adding a little cayenne pepper since the recipe didn't seem to have much other added seasoning. This ended up being a wonderful final touch. Well, as I mentioned, we all raved over the flavor! Everything married together was just excellent! One thing I would recommend is parboiling the potatoes prior to cooking or cooking the recipe 1/2 hour longer. Keep in mind if you cook it longer you may overcook the seafood.

I don't even know what else to say! This was fantastic, so different, yet one of the best dinners we have ever had!
