    I am not a flounder fan, but this dish was great. I will find it easier to eat flounder in the future. Many thanks for sharing. - 9/9/09

    Incredible!
    The whole family enjoyed it. I added some crushed red pepper for a little more kick. We will be having this dish again for sure. - 7/16/13

    Family enjoyed this but I would tone down the spices. Far too much salt. I would season with 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp of the rest and substitute fresh garlic in the vegetable saute for the garlic powder. I also omitted the smart balance - 7/1/13

    I was really surprised by this recipe and liked it a lot. My husband wasn't to crazy about it. He didn't like the texture of the fish so he wants me to try it again with chicken breasts. Sounds interesting to me...we'll see! Thanx for the recipe! - 9/11/11
