My family loves this recipe including my son, who doesn't normally like fish at all. I prepare it exactly as written. Delicious.

Loved this recipe!! Substituted tilapia for grouper, as we are totally land-locked and fresh and frozen fish is not readily available. I've rarely, if ever, seen grouper in the meat market! Excellent sauce, made exactly as recipe instructed. It's a keeper!

The sauce was good, but used frozen grouper and it was REALLY fishy. I've had grouper in Florida and don't remember it being that way, so it must be the frozen stuff...YUCK! Try it again with a different fish.
