    Excellent. One of the best and tastiest fish recipes I have encountered in a long time. One slight adaptation: instead of 1/4 cup water I add half water and half dry white wine. Makes it even better. Has become a regular for us.

    Highly recommend! My teen and I loved this recipe. The cooked arugula was great, loses its peppery flavor I think. Instead of water, I used canned chicken broth and lawrys garlic parsley salt instead of regular salt. I also added some extra chicken broth at the end to make more of a sauce.

    This is lovely and it is less than 10 minutes to make it. I did not have arugula or cherry tomato so I used spinach and I sliced regular tomato instead. I also added fresh basil. I will be making this on a regular basis now with any mild white fish like tilapia.

    Absolutely excellent. Tastes like it came from a 4-star restaurant.

      Correction - this recipe is different than the book version. It is dredged in flour and pan-fried, and the tomatoes are sautéed in oil and the arugula is added off-heat. It is wonderful.

    This is my go-to dinner recipe for one. It is healthy, fast, and most important-- flavorful!

    I really enjoyed this! The flavours just worked - butter and lemon is always delicious but paired with capers and red pepper flakes, it was unique and really delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

    The video was very helpful. I LOVED Sarah's enthusiasm and how she explained the importance of each step (which I always find useful). I am a beginner cook and this recipe was not just simple but declicious and healthy! Thank you!

    Awesome dish! I used spinach instead of arugula and it came out superb. It's light, healthy, full of flavor and easy to make. You couldn't ask for any better. The sauce holds the key to the flavor. I used a little more lemon juice than butter, but that's just my preference. I highly recommend it.

    I thought this was extremely delicious and extremely fast and easy! I was feeding 4 people and everyone loved it. Not a big deal to do two batches. I just loaded up the pan twice. I will definitely make this again and again.
