This is really good, and different. All the cheese sort of detracts from the low-fatness of the fish, but oh well :). If it's bland, add some adobo. -
My husband's a fisherman so we have lots of fish. I'm always looking for new fish recipes. I thought this one was great! It is easy and tasty. My husband felt it was a little bland but I had to leave out the bell peppers because he won't eat them. I think the next time I make this I will use chopped chiles instead of bell peppers. Thanks for sharing.
