The preparation took longer than expected, but was well worth it. You can taste every ingredient in this dish. Wonderful tasty dish. Highly recommend!

The lime zest and Cheyanne powder rub on the fish was very tasty, but since fresh strawberries were out of season, we used the frozen... and it was a watery disgusting mess. I ate my fish with out the garnish and it was very good and when strawberries are back in season, I will try it again with that part of the recipe.

I decided to make this spontaneously. I had everything on hand already except for the halibut or sea bass. Instead I used Tilapia. The dish was still delicious and the poblano chiles were surprisingly wonderful with the strawberries.
