Tasty and will be made again. My dish wasn't dry at all. This meal may not have the complexity that more labor-intensive meals may have, but for the preparation time and relatively inexpensive ingredients, it was a very high return on investment. And healthy? Score! Thank you, sir.

We loved it! We watched Booby's show Bobby Flay Fit (I can not leave the link on my comment where Bobby uses lemon juice and butter in the sauce. I am not sure why they are not included in the online recipe, it's all about the flavor and the flavor is great! Looking forward to left overs for lunch.
