"This colorful dish is lovely for entertaining. You can present the fish on a large warm platter and let people take what they like. Serve with rice pilaf, tossed salad, and a pitcher of Sangria."

Excellent flavor -- I didn't add the flour. It was a little watery as a result, but I think it would have been even without the water. Easy & quick, too. I will *definitely* make this again.
