Verdict: Win
I've never cooked fish before, but it was a nice change from chicken for once. It wasn't amazing, but still likeable because it was light and was drizzled with lime juice (making me reminisce of Mexico). Some parts were squishier and not as flaky as others, though I don't know what to do to fix that. I would add more salt and lime next time to jazz it up.
