  1. This is quite tasty. Could even make without Capers if you don't have them in your fridge. BUT, be sure to pull the sauce off the heat for a few minutes to cool before adding lemon juice. My sauce curdled because I added the lemon juice when it was still too hot. Didn't ruin it, but wasn't smoothy & pretty sauce!
     
  2. This is a wonderful recipe! We live in Hawaii and have been looking for an easy fish recipe. I’ve made it twice according to the recipe instructions (by half, made it for two), and each time it was perfect! I’d say it takes about 30 minutes on medium heat for the sauce to thicken - once it starts to boil I reduced the heat a bit. Make sure you don’t add the lemon juice right away, I pulled it off the heat for a bit before adding it. Also the sauce is great with your vegetable.

  3. Omg.. I love, love this receipe... I thought I didn't like fish until i had it this way thank you for easy directions...
     
  4. I tried this recipe tonight. I also used FF Half & Half. It was good, but the sauce never thickened in the least little bit. I don't know if it was because I didn't use heavy cream or not. Still a good recipe.
     
  5. The cook time on this says 15 minutes, but after 40 minutes on medium heat the sauce had barely reduced. I thought perhaps a little more heat was needed, but at '7' out of '10' on my stove it curdled almost immediately. This sauce may or may not be good when prepared correctly, but the instructions given are clearly not correct.

  1. I eat fish all the time and I always love new recipes. This was incredibly easy and delicious. My roommate who doesn't like fish loved it too. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken stock (allergies), and I cut the recipe in half and had more than enough for 4 large servings.
