Comments

This recipe is exceptional. When put on baked white fish, it tastes like something out of a restaurant! 

I love this recipe! I made it for our Tasting Tables program at 3 different elementary schools and the students loved it! Nice combo of sweet and spicy. Pairs well with homemade tortilla chips for dipping :)
