This sounds so delicious, notcho - you're on a roll tonight...thank you for a wonderful new way to prepare fish. I can imagine the difference the grapes make - can't wait to try it!


I don't peel grapes for anyone! I use green seedless grapes in this recipe, much easier and the sauce is quite delicious and wonderful. Enjoy.


I've never peeled a grape for anyone. Is there a specific method of doing so? Could this be made without peeling the grapes? Sounds delicious!!!
