Made this last night for dinner, it was AMAZING! I served it with a bit of rice and a napa cabbage salad. I left out the jalapeños just in case the kids might eat any, but then we ate after they went to bed. Less flying food that way.;) Oh and I didn’t have limes, but I had meyer lemons off the neighbor’s tree, gotta love California.:D
