  1. This is a wonderful recipe. I substituted Striped Marlin for the Swordfish and it was delicious. Originally from the Chesapeake Bay area, Iuse Olde Bay seasoning. I doubled the batch and fish, it heated up really well for lunch the next day. I served it with Teriyaki Citrus rice.
     
  2. We thought this recipe was good. It worked really well on a weeknight as it is really easy to make and requires very little prep. I used Old Bay and thought that worked well. Thanks for posting.
     
  3. The flavor was perfect, but my breading stuck to the pan during cooking. I'll use a little more oil next time.
     
  4. Very good. I like the flavor of the lime, instead of the usual lemon, used in seafood dishes. The crust was nice, and not too thick. Very easy to make and tasty!
     
  5. This was magnificent, Tebo. I used Old Bay seasoning and thought the flavor was accented well with the lime juice. I also agree that using a cast-iron skillet is a good idea. Made a nice crispy crust. Doubled the recipe for my family. Enjoyed by all of us. Thanks.
