My family loved this dish. I cooked the greens just like we would if it were a side dish with red pepper flakes and red hot sauce and used red bell pepper instead of green bell pepper since my husband really doesnt care for the green pepper. My 6 month old love this she ate everything I gave her. Great Dish!!

Loved this - made a few modifications: replaced the green bell pepper with red bell pepper for color and sweetness. A few dashes of cayenne pepper on the fish before you steam it adds a pleasant heat. Using smoked paprika put it over the top!
