FOOD INSPIRATION DURING THE TIME OF THE CORONAVIRUS
This recipe is from the cookbook "Levana's Table." So easy, so good. I pair it with sauted greens and rice. Her secrets to having this come out fabulous are these. Use a wide skillet that the fish will fit snugly in one layer. Don't cook the fish any longer than instructed.
