We recommend this quick dinner recipe because it's tasty, easy to whip up and ready to eat in under 30 minutes. But remember, when you head out with your shopping list – key limes can be hard to find. If fresh key limes are not available, no worries! Key lime concentrate juice works just fine. This dish is ideal with a side salad and a side of rice and beans.
