DELISH!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Simple to make and completely delicious. I would add lime zest as well because it needed a bit more citrus...but that is... personal preference. ENJOY!! Read more

Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Feel like it needed moreflavor. Added fresh cilantro to the sauce, but still needed more taste. Will try again with the lime... zest as some have mentioned and maybe some more salt. Made in stovetop grill pan, very easy.Read more

Talk about easy...
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I am not a huge fan of Paula deen, mainly because of all the "butta" she puts in her dishes. But this recipie was simple and... easy to modify. I cut the butter to 2 tbs, and used 3 tbs of lime juice. I also added the zest of the lime. Amazing, and very simple. My 3 year old loved it. Will definately make again.Read more

Very easy to make.
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This recipe was tasty, and super easy to make. I used ingredients that I had on hand to make a very nice, healthy meal. I... live alone, and making meals for one isn't easy. I halved the recipe, and then saved the leftover for dinner another evening. I'll definitely make this recipe again.Read more
