Delicious and very pretty too. I used refined coconut oil in place of the butter and cremini mushrooms because that's what I had. I will definitely add this to my recipes I make again. I served it with salmon and it was wonderful.

This was very good. I used all olive oil, rather than using butter, too. Will make it again. Thanks.

Delicious! I made this with the tilapia on the same page, rice pilaf and biscuits for a great meal.
