    Costa Rican Tilapia, This recipe is from Authentic Costa Rican dish!, Use half the amount of cilantro if using dried instead of fresh, Love this recipe! used dried cilantro the first time and I must have converted the fresh to dry ratio wrong because it was a bit overpowering. I cut back the amount to half the second time, and it was perfect.
