MARGARITA MIX BAKED WHITE FISH



Margarita Mix Baked White Fish image

My son and I came up with this one when we were camping on the Wenatchee River a few summers ago. I caught a huge White Fish and wanted to share it with some folks camped next to us. We all thought it turned out good and I have since made it at home using Red Snapper and Catfish.
