This one was a hit! I had everything on hand already (except the lemon - used bottled juice and omitted zest). It was ready in no time, and had nice, bright flavor and a little kick. Easy enough for a weeknight dinner, but I think it's a company-worthy main dish. Husband and kids liked it too, so this recipe is a keeper. It's going into my lineup.
