Story about the recipe: When we first got married I started making this dish. And once our kids were born that was over since they were very fussy eaters and wouldn’t touch fish let alone all these different flavors mixed up. It wasn’t until they were both off to college that I decided to look up this recipe again but make it a healthier version with the brown rice and switching to a health oil that can heat at a high temperature with no problems.
