Reviews

[*Pixie*]

For anyone else reading this recipe, ALL the fish should be fresh. Please do not attempt to use canned as one reviewer suggested. In addition, green chilies are not the same thing as (or a substitute for) the chili sauce called for in the recipe. Furthermore, if you click on the link for the chili sauce, recipezaar even describes it and tells you how to make a substitution.

I disliked this recipe. The combination of the sweetness of the meat (I used fresh, not canned)and the green chilis gave it a bit of an off taste.

[Linda's Busy Kitchen]

The chili sauce in this recipe is the red sauce with horseradish, not green chilis. The kind you use when your making shrimp cocktail, not the Mexican chilies.
