Posted in response to a recipe request. The original recipe says any firm white fish can be used, and also suggests using hot tortillas to mop up the sauce. Sounds good to me!

Perfect for a weeknight meal! I was able to throw all the ingredients in the crock pot in the morning, and dinner was ready when I got home from work. The fish was fall-apart tender, and the sauce was delicious. I served it with tortillas and avocado

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it! He said it was the best fish he's ever had. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less chili peppers next time.
