This is a modification of a recipe I found in Bon Appetite a few years ago. It is very easy to make and has a wonderful spicy taste. The sauce would also be great on halibut or any hardy white fish. I serve it with sautèed spinach with garlic and shallots.  I have many other easy nutritious recipes on my blog:  http://healthandnutritionexperts.wordpress.com
