    I followed the recipe exactly, though I was a little worried about the amount of cayenne. My fish broke up a bit, but I went with it and served it piled up on a platter, family style. It turned out to be so very easy & delicious. It was NOT overly spicy, even my picky six year old ate it! - 2/2/12

    Very tasty...Eating fish prepared the "healthy way" never tasted so good. I skipped the cayenne pepper and used low-sodium chicken broth. - 3/9/11

    This was awesome. My subs were just easy cheats, so didn't change it hugely. I used 4 filets & no oil or butter...I also used chives, low sodium broth & a mixed garlic herb no salt seasoning and half the cayenne. BUT...it was awesome! I think you could use any alternate liquid & seasoning - great! - 2/3/11
