    I added a little garlic powder to the steak seasoning and it was amazing!

  • Nicholaus Spinka

    I've made this several times and it's always a hit. I sometimes use cherry tomatoes instead of sliced tomatoes and it works great.

  • Verlie Bailey

    My kids, who normally turn their noses up at fish, actually ate this! The lemon and steak seasoning really mask any fishy taste.
