SO delicious!! We used tilapia because we couldn't find any snapper. We also added a small jalapeno (minced) to the sauce. We're going to have to triple the recipe next time! ;-) Made for PAC Fall 2012.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I have been cooking since I was a kid. I love to experiment with all kinds of recipes, and then make them my own. Sometimes I will take two or three recipes and combine them together to make a unique creation that everyone love. If the kids wont eat it, it's not good enough, and the kids are NOT picky eaters!
