What a good fish dinner! The sauce turned out smooth, velvety and delicious and once drizzled over the fish, oh yeah, salivating time (I did add extra garlic). Opted to not make the potatoes and used pea pods in place of snap peas, because snap peas were not available at the market. This is one of those dishes, that is company worthy, but easy enough for a weeknight. Thank you, ellie, for sharing.
