Fairly simple to make, attractive presentation and wonderful blend of flavors with a just a hint of garlic and a wonderful citrus flavor. There are other similar recipes here, but this one is a little differant and my family really loved it. I served w/steamed white rice and spooned the extra sauce over that and it made for a lovely dinner. Ingredients:
